CMRenji Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 Black Holes, they are awesome, and so mysterious. Like, what's at the other side? No one knows for sure, but we will try our very best to figure it out. @JoshIcy: I don't get Supermassive Black Holes, how big do they have to be to be considered "Supermassive"?

Î’yakuya Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 I heard. Imagine if one of those came or appeared in our galaxy. Can a Black Hole have the power to rip time and/or space? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well science has found Anti-matter. If it comes in contact with matter they both vanish and disappear. Combine that with the fact that there is no time in the center of a black hole... If somehow the black hole's time stopping powers were amplified and say, that it was full of anti-matter. Though almost impossible a vortex with that power could literally rip up time and space. But this will probably never happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wouldn't actually affect spacetime because space is a completely different thing to matter. To be honest, spacetime only ever folds or distorts when there is matter, so bombing anti-matter everywhere would probably spring clean the universe. The time theory, I've never heard before which is quite interesting :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bet it looks impressive. [/quote] It's actually very easy to see the other side of a black hole; you don't even need to go around it like you do for normal, smaller-scale objects on Earth. Black holes are massive enough that they bend light, so light from objects on the far side of them that normally couldn't even go near us is bent toward us by the black holes' gravity, allowing us to see them despite the lack of a direct line of sight.

Can a Black Hole have the power to rip time and/or space? [/quote]No is the answer to that because a black hole IS a rip in space. actually, it's technically a rip in time too.

It's just highly condensed matter that has exerts so much gravity that it literally pushes the surface of spacetime into a nice little curve.
