This blows my mind.
Falling in

To be sucked in by a black hole, you need to reach its event horizon, the one-way boundary beyond which nothing can escape. The more massive a black hole, the bigger this point of no return around it, said Jeff McClintock, a senior astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

The most common black holes, which weigh on average 10 times as much as the sun, have boundaries 40 miles across. But most galaxies also have supermassive black holes at their centers, which weigh millions of suns and would have boundaries that stretch millions of miles. Blog: What is a white hole?

Approaching the horizon, you would notice nothing special, but someone observing you from the outside would see you freeze in place and become a lot dimmer because light that you emit at the boundary takes a long time to get out, Hamilton said.

Many people think you would be engulfed in darkness when you fall in, but that is a common misconception, Hamilton points out. The view of the outside universe would become distorted, but would not disappear.

Once you pass the horizon -- or go over Niagara Falls, in the waterfall analogy -- you would be falling faster than the speed of light toward the black hole's center -- called a singularity -- and feeling the effects, Hamilton said.

"The gravity at your feet is stronger than the gravity at your head, as long as you fall in feet first. ... You feel this difference in gravity between your feet and your head as a tidal force, which pulls you apart vertically in a process called 'spaghettification,' " Hamilton writes on his Web site.

"At the same time as you are pulled apart vertically, you are crushed in the horizontal direction, like a rubber band being pulled. So if you would like to be taller and thinner, then one way to achieve that is to fall into a black hole."

Strange sights

The same force ripping you apart would also concentrate the view of the universe into a thin band around your waist. It would cause the scene above and below you to appear redshifted, or dimmer, and the light around your waist to become blueshifted, or very bright, Hamilton said.

You may also regret that you only have two eyes. In a strange twist, Hamilton and Polhemus argue that three eyes would be needed to properly judge distances inside a black hole, where space-time is highly curved and our binocular vision would become confused.

Even a third eye wouldn't help you see the black hole's center, however, because all light is headed toward the singularity and none away from it, Hamilton writes on his Web site.

"What you see is the outside universe appear to be squashed down into a thin plane, dark above and dark below, bright in this very thin plane," Hamilton said. "In [the singularity], the curvature of space-time goes to infinity, the tidal forces go to infinity, everything gets ripped apart and space and time as we know them come to an end."

It's fun to imagine what might happen in a black hole, but people should remember that any journey inside the event horizon is based on pure theory, McClintock said.

Anyone worried about Earth being swallowed by a black hole should also be relieved to know the closest one astronomers know about is 3,000 light years away, which McClintock called a "super, super, super safe" distance. He added that we wouldn't be sucked in even if the sun, which is only 8 light minutes away from Earth, were suddenly replaced by a black hole of the same mass.



"All the planets would keep going around just the same. ... Nothing would change except there wouldn't be any light and heat," McClintock said.

"There would be no attempt by the black hole to suck us in any more than the sun sucks us in. It's only when you get really, really close that all the bizarre things happen."

Falling in

To be sucked in by a black hole, you need to reach its event horizon, the one-way boundary beyond which nothing can escape. The more massive a black hole, the bigger this point of no return around it, said Jeff McClintock, a senior astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

I just looked at him for a second baffled at how someone that works in an industry can be so fucking clueless as to what is going on.

THE PLAYROOM is in a private residential setting, conveniently located in Greensboro, North Carolina near the Piedmont Triad International airport and several major highways. Discreetly situated in a lovely, quiet upscale neighborhood, THE PLAYROOM has its own private entrance and is fully paneled with a fireplace. It is immaculate. I have traveled most of My career as a Dominant and knew that when it came time for Me to create a �play space�, that it would have to reflect MY personal style. (It's not called a dungeon because we don�t typically practice extreme SM behaviors).

We have completely different settings here at THE PLAYROOM, from elegant but severe for D&s or B&D, to schoolroom, nursery or medical. And now, with our new beautiful secluded 1000 sq. ft. backyard play area, we can get into mischief outdoors!

THE PLAYROOM is an immaculate, no smoking, no pet environment that is also wheelchair accessible.
