Black holes can destroy everything - but can they be destroyed? What happens if we push physics to the absolute limits, maybe even break it and the universe in the process? Let’s create a tiny black hole, about the mass of our moon, in the Kurzgesagt Labs and try to rip it apart.

The idea that black holes are a dev workaround for a gamebreaking bug for the universe is a very compelling one.
"Hey, uh, we have a small issue." "What is it?" "You know how celestial bodies use that density method depending on their mass and size? Apparently a large enough body overflows and the density is calculated as infinite." "Oh. Well, I'm sure it's such an insane size that it won't realistically happen in a timeline. Maybe we could work it into a cool end-of-universe thing though." "Except it can happen in a timeline. And it has in tests. And the moment it happens everything collapses because density is infinite and thus gravity is infinite." "The universe is supposed to come out in two days! Just change the formula!" "We've tried. I'm sorry, but changing it breaks everything else that relies on it." "Well I don't know! Just hide it or something. We can do bugfixes and stuff after release, but it has to be at least playable." "What do you want me to do, just create matter voids around them?" "...you know what? Sure. But make it intuitive. Maybe they get larger the more you feed them?" "I can do that. Oh, and we can make them decay over time so that they delete themselves but it doesn't feel unrealistic!" "Perfect. Just get that coded in and we'll call it a day."
A glitch in a matrix with a cheap fix... the devs of reality must be on a tight budget

It's interesting to note that singularities don't break actual physics, more like they break the model we use at the moment to understand physics. This is important, because it means that singularities can and do make sense, the problem is we don't have the right model to understand them yet.
Couldn’t the answer instead be that within the event horizon, there is something other than a singularity? E.g. iirc one idea assuming string theory is that the interior of a black hole is like, a big jumble of the “strings” , which end up (I guess due to having so much energy) having size comparable to the size of the black hole, instead of being of a subatomic size?
Its sooo interesting
Physics is not a thing, but our model(s) of nature. So kurzgesagt is right. A singularity breaks our models but it does not "break nature".
This. My biggest petpeeve with popscience videos is the "break reality" trope. No, it doesn't break reality, it is part of reality. It can break OUR understanding (our science) of reality, but to the natural world itself that's just tuesday.
Would love to see what would happen to sombody if they gazed at a bare singularly
It’s absolutely crazy how far humanity has come
We didn't have the ability to do any of this idea only to try to calculate it base on the information we have
@@yitzhakbohadana5102duh!! He’s taking about the idea that we know about such things
Black holes basically turn everything into that data that takes up 60% of your computer's storage but your computer doesn't tell you what it is.
Learning that a Black Hole's center is "in the future" kind of broke my mind for several minutes. ALso: This animation just keeps getting better and better!
It's because of the relativistic effects of gravity. It's not in the future "per se", but you would experience the death of the universe if you were falling towards one
@@accountnamewithheld At the point where we talk about time in things like this, the definition of time that we use everyday becomes meaningless. Past, present and future happen at the same time. It's the same with space. You're everywhere and everywhen and that all at once.
you don't actually go in the future, time just freezes for you.
Technically, everywhere you want to go is as much in the future as it is in front of you.
@@accountnamewithheld I was wondering this, too. Its gravitational pull would be so massive, everything around it will look like it's going extremely fast. But how does that make singularity lie in the future? Shouldn't it be in the past? We from the outside move on, might even die, before the singularity is reached.
I like how black holes are so absurdly powerful that they just had to settle with shaving the top off as 'destroying' the black hole
I wonder if stripping them of their event horizon actually prevents them from evaporating thus making them eternal
@@andreabardelli3137 That would be hardcore
@@andreabardelli3137Why would it do that?
Because the event horizon is the thing decaying to hawking radiation, not the singularity. This should mean, that most likely a naked singularity would be eternal. We can't know this for sure, as no black hole will die within the lifetime of our civilization.
@@jb76489not a physicist but from what I know the Hawking Radiation is what happens when a particle and antiparticle are created out of nothing. Normally they cancel eachother out and nothing happens. But when one particle is inside the event horizon and the other isn't, one particle "exists and the black whole "pays" the energetic toll for forcing it to exist. This is a very simplified explanation so I recommend you look into Hawking Radiation for more info
3:55 I recall a previous video on black holes introducing the concept of the ergosphere, a section of space surrounding the event horizon that quite literally churns around it like a spatial vortex because of the singularity's extreme spin. What would happen to that when the event horizon is removed? My first idea is that it wouldn't go anywhere - it was caused by the spin, and extreme spin is what's needed to remove the event horizon. Which means getting as close as you like is probably still rather perilous!
Okay, time to explain some weird things. A rotating black hole has actually 2 event horizons, The outer event horizon, the normal point of no return. The inner event horizon, caused by the rotation causing space to move slower than lightspeed. There is also a second ergosphere, inside the inner event horizon. The inner ergosphere still exists, when the singularity is naked. The outer ergosphere doesn't.
@@A_literal_cube Holy shit
What if the ergosphere effectively _becomes_ a new event horizon, just one that "smears" information and matter around a shell rather than having it fall all the way in?
how did kurzgesagt made educational video more epic than entire star wars sequels
the sequels aren't a high bar to beat
The concept of a naked singularity is just incredible to me. It's a concept reminiscent of cosmic horror stories, as it is something so unfathomably powerful, indescribable, inconceivable and incomprehensible that simple observation of it could potentially cause reality itself to break in ways we couldn't even begin to imagine. And yet, this is a scientific hypothesis, not a horror story. The idea of something like that potentially being possible sends shivers down my spine. While I'd honestly be shocked if naked singularities were actually physically possible in our universe, the concept has an appeal nothing else can really quite match.
Fr, imagine something so unspeakably horrible, dangerous, or just plain weird that the nature of the universe throws all the stops at you possible to prevent it from being unleashed
It reminds me of photons. Observing it changes reality
My brain immediately went "wait..... isn't that an infinite improbability generator?"
The real horror comes from the concept of something and nothing and its far reaching implications. Either something came from nothing, which should be impossible. Or something always existed. Either way the full picture of reality is far beyond our current experience.
Sorry to be a buzzkill, but in this video they kinda forget what a singularity is to begin with: a kind of divide by zero error. It's just a hole in the mathematics we use to describe gravity. Singularities aren't physical. You can't have a naked singularity because they don't exist. If we have a theory of quantum gravity, that might explain what would happen if we push a black hole past its breaking point (if there even is such a thing). There is no such thing as breaking reality however.
I absolutely love it how he was so chill at the beginning, but closer to the end he became so chaotic and aggressive lmao
Yeah something different about this.
Yeah ikr, at the beginning he spoke in a calm, slow voice, but then at the end he spoke in a fast chaotic voice 😂
and then he went back to calm when he started the ad lol
watching the video felt like taking crack and then feeling the effects near the end
The music just amped it up so much as well. Too good
Please do even more stuff about black holes this is awesome!
This is simply the best video on KZhead. The whole team of Kurzgesagt deserves an award for this sole video. The music, the script the animation everything was better than every movie ever made💥💥
The idea that there are literal points in our universe where space and time do not exist is extremely fascinating.
And are also most likely false, like all paradoxes are
Theoretically
well, probably not literal, it's just our theory breaks at that point so we replace the "??????" at the centre of a blackhole with the logical prediction of our theory, a singularity. but that means the theory is probably wrong, or more likely, incomplete
Yes, it's hard to fathom such a state. Even calling it a state is a misrepresentation. My mind struggles to grasp the singularity, but to no avail.
Are we sure those counts as being "in", or "part of" the universe? They sound like what was before the big bang, not part of the universe by definition.
As an astrophysicist, I'm extremely impressed with how Kurzgesagt was able to put this into understandable or simplified terms. Studying the capacity of black holes has always boggled my mind no matter the depths I go into the physics we have now.
Honestly, I'm surprised they never threw in white holes, whether for the anti-blackhole (if a white hole isn't the anti-particle of a black hole, then nothing is), or as a comment on the "anything can come out" aspect of a naked singularity. They even mentioned Hawking radiation, and that might _be_ the real-world manifestation of a white hole, and still no mention of white holes.
White hole isn't an anti-black hole. But I'm also curious.
@@absalomdraconisantimatter is the opposite of matter only in charge.. same spin.. same masse.. And white wholes are opposite in mass.. Its technically negative mass.. But colliding them together would be impossible i think.. because of how positive and negative mass behave together.. plus they still dont have that much of science behind white wholes
Hi
@@ibrahimbenhmida3852It's definitely not negative mass. And, there is no such thing as negative mass. If white holes do exist, they would be composed of mass, not negative mass.
Just the right amount of characterization and the right amount of hype music. Perfect visuals as always. Just Brilliant.

Wow, this video really blew my mind! It's fascinating to think about the immense power and mystery of black holes.
haven’t come across a channel where i binge watch all the videos in YEARS like i mean new fresh ideas that are always engaging and interesting and every time this amazing team puts together a new video you know your gonna learn something in a fun way.
"You break a stick, you now have two sticks. Stick always wins." was a very profound look into black holes, apparently.
of course, it's impossible to destroy something that doesn't exist in the first place. >_
@@quickmythril2398 what
well, break a stick enough times and you will end up with thin disks / or fine powder (depending on the way you ‘break’ it) i guess you will win eventually, which means it only needs determination and means of breaking it further and further. and when you look at the dust… its going to be hard to argue that the stick won… :) there is always a limit when things stop being a thing and they become something else. like those sticks… two sticks… 4 … etc… but at point it takes on a new form and becomes sawdust
burn the stick
@@mityaboy4639 the sticks will live on through the disks, and therefore the disks are also your enemy. you can never win
The animations are otherworldly as always, but the soundtrack for this video goes so hard it's like a final boss fight music. Props to everyone who makes these videos possible!
Breaking the event horizon is the equivalent of breaking a sacred seal imprisoning an unknowable, malevolent cosmic horror.
Exactly! the music is amazing

@@gcat360 no sadly
We need that book now
Rip
Just a quick note. Singularity as a point is only for static (non-rotating) black holes. If the blackhole rotates, its singularity has a shape of a ring (ringularity). Another interesting point is that a rotating black hole has two event horizons. The funny fact is that in between the horizons, you don't have to necessarily travel towards the singularity although you can't escape from there. You could live happily there for years but if you crossed the second horizon you have to reach the singularity.
replying for visibility- very cool stuff
a ringshaped singularity actually makes me wonder: what happens if you are in the exact centre of that "ringularity"? Because, like Kurzgesagt also explained, the singularity would be your future. But if you are in the exact centre of this ring, every direction points toward the future.
I believe Kurzgesagt has already done a video touching on this - the "Black Hole Bomb" video...
@@baraapudding In theory, you should be able to safely pass through the middle and some think it should serve as a wormhole that spits you out into another universe from a white-hole. But I don't believe such a claims :D
@@baraapuddingas far as i understand, as long as you're past the event horizon every direction you can go will only ever lead you towards the singularity (which is the reason nothing can escape the event horizon). So i don't think it would matter if you were in the "hole" of a ringularity or somewhere else inside of the black hole. I'm not a physicist so i can't tell you for sure but i think that's how it works
Damn, I don't understand HOW I didn't find your channel before! This content is just a CELEBRATION!
An old memory just came to the surface. I used to own a guidebook on this subject, years ago when I was hitchhiking.
I love how the beginning was chill and contained simple explanations, then the Music in the end Being so Dramatic and how Kurzgesagt was basically like, "Everything has lost its meaning, The Universe becomes the definintion of Chaos and Absurdity"

@@namantherockstarI just followed you, I hope you follow your dreams and succeed 👍🏾
Yo if you are a physicist maybe you can answer my question... When a black hole shrinks over time - that must mean there is a point where its mass is no longer able to create an event horizon right? That would mean that at some point the singularity would be visible and maybe explode bc there is not enough gravity to compress itself, right?
@@plantarum3276 Not a physicist, but as I understand it, it would simply evaporate in a burst of energy
@plantarum3276 Any mass can have an event horizon. It just gets smaller if your mass shrinks. However, there appears to be a lower limit that arises from quantum physics. Once that has been reached the black hole emits a photon whose energy corresponds to its remaining mass and it is gone. Sadly this is not very interesting, but that is probably the way all matter in the universe will ultimately go. At that time we will have reached the heat death of the universe.
Imagine being the physicist in charge of an event horizon breaking experiment. Real Oppenheimer moment right there.
If you had the power to create a black hole with the mass of the moon, you'd have the power to annihilate a continent.

I listened to a podcast recently that posited the idea that prehistoric black holes, that were formed shortly after the Big Bang, may have shrunk down to the planck scale and are stuck at that size; too small to interact with anything or disappear completely. If there are enough of these tiny black holes floating around, they could be a candidate for dark matter. Collectively they have a bunch of mass, but are individually too small to interact with matter.
The dead pixels of the universe.
I feel like we must've listened to the same podcast. Was it the recent Radiolab episode about the Tunguska event?
@@paulrussell9632no, it's just a common theory I think

It’s insane that something like a black hole exists and is a real thing. it seems so unreal, yet it is
Science and rules of physics in our universe have been created by Allah (SWT) and its mentioned multiple times for as many topics, such for this, our Prophet (saas) have indeed reached the boundaries (end of space-time) read by: --- Sûrat An- Najm ( The Star ) LIII, Chapter: 53 1. By the star when it decends 2. Your companion ( Muhammad) has neither gone astray nor has erred. 3. Nor does he speak of ( his own ) desire. 4. It is only a Revelation revealed. 5. He has been taught ( this Qur’ân ) by one mighty in power [ Jibrîl ( Gabriel ) ] 6. One free from any defect in body and mind then he ( Jibrîl - Gabriel in his real shape as created by Allah ) rose and became stable. 7. While he [ Jibrîl ( Gabriel ) ] was in the highest part of the horizon, ( Tafsir Ibn Kathir ) 8. Then he [ Jibrîl ( Gabriel ) ] approached and came closer, 9. And was at a distance of two bows’ length or ( even ) nearer. 10. So ( Allâh ) revealed to His slave [ Muhammad through Jibrîl ( Gabriel ) ( as ) ] whatever He revealed. 11. The ( Prophet’s ) heart lied not in what he ( Muhammad ) saw. 12. Will you then dispute with him ( Muhammad ) about what he saw [ during the Mi‘râj: ( Ascent of the Prophet to the seven heavens ) ] [ 1 ] 13. And indeed he ( Muhammad ) saw him [ Jibrîl ( Gabriel ) ] at a second descent ( i.e. another time ) . 14. Near Sidrat- ul- Muntaha ( a lote- tree of the utmost boundary over the seventh heaven beyond which none can pass ) . 15. Near it is the Paradise of Abode. 16. When that covered the lote- tree which did cover it! [ 2 ] 17. The sight ( of Prophet Muhammad ) turned not aside ( right or left ) , nor it transgressed beyond the limit ( ordained for it ) . 18. Indeed he ( Muhammad ( saas ) ) did see of the Greatest Signs, of his Lord ( Allâh ). Also: Sûrat Al Ma'arij. ( The Acent) Chapter 7. A questioner asked concerning a torment about to befall 2. Upon the disbelievers, which none can avert, 3. From Allah, the Lord of the ways of ascent. (Tunnels through space) 4. The angels and the Ruh [Jibrael (Gabriel)] ascend to Him in a Day the measure whereof is fifty thousand years. --- Today we know that and space is flexible and time could be dilated. Which mentioned in Quran, a day in the heavens (Space) could reach 50,000 years of our counting on earth And when the star descends, it could reach the blackhole threshold. Do not be like those who denied the truth. Follow God by doing the goodness and do your prayers daily, ask God the right path and he is the most Leistenful and Merciful
What's funny is it's just gravity but also the next step in our understanding of physics
This and what started the big bang make me question reality
Your own existence is also kind of unreal, so cheers mate!
Or is it real?🤨
I freaking love this channel so much
That's cool. The way it's described sounds like a big bang trapped and hidden away by gravity. 😮 ❤
What if the Big Bang was the result of the alpha version of the universe and they forgot to add the event horizon to one black hole, which then erupted in the creative chaos that is the cosmos?
obviously the animation is great, but lets take a moment to appreciate the music in this episode. Absolutely amazing.
Yes especially the Intro I love it
The other black hole videos have great soundtracks too
It kept me on the very age of the chair
That middle section had no business being so epic
The soundtrack to the Black Hole Size Comparison video is one of the best they’ve ever done
Whenever I want that sense of existential dread I skip Lovecraftian horror and simply watch a ten minute video on black holes and immediately get a deep sense of fear that will never leave me questioning my perceived reality in a way that can't be done any other way. Thanks.
Same same
I don't feel the same dread... I get sad that I'll never be able to go and see such a thing for myself. Even taking a picture is pushing the limits of what we can do right now.
@@johnladuke6475 Existential dread is not necessarily fear, but a subtle sense of uncertainty, feeling your whole being belittled, that you start to question why you're brought to this universe. The sadness you feel is just that, I believe. Cuz I experience the same. I always wonder, the physics seems almost set just to prohibit us from exploring the vast 99.9999…% of all the possibilities in a Universe that is just out there for us to observe. It's almost a ridicue, a reminder to how tiny and powerless we are. Why are we still here then? Just to suffer?
Same here my special interest is black holes and astronomy
The most chilling creatures in Lovecrafts work are these incredibly powerful and haughty extraterrestrials who -as they say- care less about humanity than the dirt under our shoes. But the horror fades at some point you notice two things: 1. They prefer to take privileged white young men with money and from good families to drive them crazy. 2. For the fact that they despise humanity so incredibly, they hang around with us very often and for a very long time.
I love Kurzgesagt's signature, "BOOM"! Idk mabye it's just the way that Steve says it! 😆
This is still one of the best channels ever invented. Thank you, Kurzgesagt!

Too bad they're grossly inaccurate on this video. There's no such thing as a singularity in real life, that simply means the mathematics has broken down and is no longer valid. A shame they constantly provide such great useful information until this video full of junk information that you cannot even claim is even the slightest bit scientifically accurate.
@@nopenope4402🤓
@@nopenope4402you do realize that most of the information we have on black holes are either hypothetical or unproven theories. You can’t prove there is no singularity in the middle of a black hole either because no one ever went there. Take a chill pill buddy.
I heavily suspect there’s some weird physics rule we haven’t discovered yet that makes naked singularities impossible, like a process that makes it so that you can get rid of the event horizon, but it takes as long as it takes for the black hole to evaporate on its own to get rid of it, so you never get to the naked singularity.
It's just as likely that there is no such thing as a singularity to begin with. The concept of a singularity occurs because our math breaks past the event horizon. However discovering new math could change that. It's potentially similar to how there was a singularity past Mach 1 originally when calculating air resistance on planes. Then we actually went faster than Mach 1, learned the singularity was the result of a flawed model, and had to redo all the equations for calculating air resistance because it turns out air behaves differently than our equations predicted once you reach the speed of sound.
The Event Horizon is a region of extremely distorted space time, not a literal boundary. Hence the difficulty in defining it. It would be impossible to “break” or “remove” it in any way.
@@Da0yster we had bullets before planes, and they go supersonic. It was thus very likely to be known to be possible, just impossible to calculate.
its like how if you try to separate 2 quarks the energy used to pull them apart will spawn a new one
Or it's the start of the Big Bang as we understand it since Time becomes wonky / didn't exist where the explosion happened while the Infinite Density of whatever exploded created our set of physics. We may find something that counters that view of the Big Bang but at this point it seems the most likely.
5:48 nice house at the back
5:47 Heh I see Spongebob's pineapple house in the bg. And the famous The Persistence of Memory painting is referenced right after!
I always trust Kurzgesagt to keep my grounded with a does of existential terror of "what if a singularity just rips apart physics"
imagine if some aliens 3000 light years away decided to troll all of existence by stripping a black hole. Crazy
i fr thought of this lmfao@@lihan6870
if they were advanced enough to know how to to that, they'd be advanced enough to know how stupid it would be. Only humanity level stupidity would be the reason why a black hole is stripped lmao.@@lihan6870
ok
If falling into a black hole accelerates you into the future, and black holes evaporate in a finite amount of time, doesn't that mean nothing can ever reach a singularity?
I see it like this, when you fall on the event horizon, you become part of and are rapidly going to a future in which the black hole becomes so small it disappears, but you are still part of it Basically, the black hole is also falling into the singularity, and the moment it dissolves is the moment all of the object inside the black hole hit the singularity
You can reach it time is just distorted. What we see is anything that isn't light go to the center and vanish because your matter is crushed in the atomic level down to every atom and become a part of the mass of the black hole enhancing its gravitational pull and mass that's all compressed.
What do you mean "the black hole is falling into the singularity?"
@@GIRGHGH it's not exactly how it works but it can help you understand With time, the black hole gets smaller and smaller until it disappears With time, you will fall into the singularity in the future What stops the moment you touch the singularity to be the moment the black hole disappears You both touch the singularity at the same time The black hole gets infinitely smaller (a singularity) You get squished into a singularity Think of it like a prison that is VERY slowly getting smaller and you are sentenced to death by being squished, the walls won't kill you, only in the future when there is no more space left for you, when you die and the wall touch each other, there is nothing inside the walls, so it is no longer a prison
@@GIRGHGH A black hole is compression of spacetime brought to its logical conclusion. As gravity is spacetime compression and the singularity is infinite curvature, spacetime flows into the singularity; the event horizon is simply the point where the speed of this flow is faster than the speed of light. Hawking radiation also manages to rob energy/mass from the black hole at cosmological timescales if it isn't fed, so it constantly contracts until it draws in more matter or energy (including cosmic microwave background radiation). And it will continue to contract at an ever-accelerating pace (from grass growing to snail's pace) until the final moments of evaporation are like a supernova. It'll just take a googol years to reach that point.
"But 'where' and 'when' don't matter anymore." Goddamn
So basically falling into a black hole and seeing the singularity is like the reverse of Golden Experience Requiem.
It's so funny and fascinating watching a science channel actively make physics-breaking hypothesies like this.
Infinite density does not make sense, if it really was infinite then the gravitational pull it exerts on the universe would be infinite, and so the whole universe would be going at the speed of light towards the singularity Plus, how a single point with 0 volume even make sense? The pauli exclusion principle forbids fermions (e.g. electrons) from occupying the same state. That means no 2 electrons can be in the same place, therefore 0 volume is impossible as that would mean 2 particles occupying the same space.
@@LitkeenWhy are you ranting to a random comment that has nothing to do with what you’re talking about?
@@Litkeen The existence of the universe itself is a paradox, after all how can something come from nothing.
it's so funny to call a Gates Foundation funded propaganda dispenser as a "science channel" :D
There was a PBS Space Time video where Matt explained how black holes might not be able to fully evaporate. Something about Planck scale shenanigans suggests a (really small) lower size limit, making them a possible candidate for dark matter. It's like a hydra, the more we know about them, the more we DON'T know about them.
You can apply the last line to most things in general, apart from just physics I mean.
Knowing what we know about quantum physics suggests that "true" singularities (i.e. matter compressed to a mathematical point of infinite density) can't really exist - any "real life" singularity SHOULD have a finite (if really small) size and finite (if really high) density just from the uncertainty principle. The problem is we can't do any better than this because we don't have the necessary theories of quantum gravity to explain what happens during the black hole collapse yet. (And that doesn't even get into the "fuzzball" possibility from string theory...)
Such a great video. Thank you!
Bluds giving me answers to questions i never even thought of
From animation, to original SFX, to all the information you would need to know in a 8 minute long video, this channel finds a way to create fun and entertaining videos while giving out very good info told in a very good way.
Its really interesting
okay @@Noah-jq1ff 😅
Oh my god this episode was phenomenal! The music, the facts (and conjectures), the visuals! It all painted black holes to be a sort of prison for the Eldritch reality warping singularity. Truly sublime, every video you guys put out is just amazing. Thank you.

Need a more in depth video like this on just back holes. Maybe can we get in a black hole alive video

@@supernatural_forces dude wtf
R-RAINWORLD PFP!!
bruh you must have never seen another kurzgesagt video before, what's terrifying about this?
The video didn't even finish when you wrote this comment...
What was the first comment you wrote on. The channel
The comparison of a black hole to an elementary particle was really interesting. I almost wonder if some of the weird properties of black holes exist because it's basically a macro object running on quantum software lol After all, the quantum world often behaves in ways that make no sense outside of it.
😂 thats exactly what it is
@@cedriceric9730 I would not be surprised
Lucky that black holes don't randomly teleport like how quantum objects do then eh
or it's a micro object if we just count the singularity, so maybe it's actually much closer to one?
@@qwertyqwert2818 Good point. It would make sense that it behaves similarly considering it's actually the smallest object in the universe, just surrounded by darkness.
wow i cant believe that just ripping the kind of "shell of the black hole" off will break the very vicinity and fabric of the very physics that hold the universe up.
God the Choir over top of you explaining that you're looking directly into the future also how infinite gravity simply collapses spacetime is so fucking cool
This may be the most visually impactful video you guys have made so far. Space is amazing.
The idea of an naked singularity is the most Lovecraftian concept i've ever heard about. It really makes me wanna uncover one and condemn the whole fabric of reality to perish
That's probably because they aren't telling you enough about them. Singularities are widely regarded as mathematical fictions. They aren't totally unexplainable or universe shattering or physics breaking, they are probably just not real. There is no reason to worry about a naked singularity turning the universe into shrimp or something silly like that. There's no reason to think that a naked one would have any impact on the rest of the universe even if it did exist.
Please don't I'm really close to beating this Geometry Dash level and I won't be able to if reality and space-time collapses
Though it is theoretically possible to form a black hole with the mass of our moon, or any mass for that matter, it would be an Unstable black hole. To Keep an Unstable black hole together you would need to apply a massive and continious "force" to maintain the density required, if not it would simply disintergrate due to a lack of mass. Stable black holes require a minimum of 2-3 solar masses to form.
The line that really got me in the gut was "...the singularity is not in front of you; it's in your future." If that ain't cosmic horror at its finest.
Ikr. And if time is flowing backwards... Wouldnt that future to us be perceived as being in the past to an observer inside the black hole? Hense the singularity that gave birth to the big bang. Then lets continue to assume that to expand is just a property of space in and of itself, then the part of space that was originally contained withen the newly formed singularity, a single planc length of space is all you need to seed an ever expanding universe. It would just continue expanding forever in all directions outwards from an event in the "past" like we observe space to do. WOAH. Hold up. I now get why the big bang isnt at the centre of the universe. Its a point in time not a point in space. Holy fuck I cant believe I never fully wrapped my head around that. Classical thinking seems to feel as though space "should" emenate "outwards" from the big bang, but from our perspective as we look into space its like space comes rushing in from all directions following an event in the past that we cant see because of the cosmic event horizon. We would have to go faster then light and therefore back in time. We cant see the singularity here either because its just like the black hole. It exists as a moment before space and time. If you can even call that a "moment." That makes the brain spin to try and imagine haha. You get what Im laying down here? I never even noticed the incompletness in the brains ability to grasp Space-time. And what it has to do with our cosmic event horizon being like a bubble around us despite the fact space has no centre to it. Should place us at the center as we observe outwards no? That right there is a hint that were not picturing space correctly. Like does that mean the big bang happened EVERYWHERE?!? No. EVERYWHEN! Wait.... See what I mean!? WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE AND WHY CAN MY BRIAN KIND OF CONTEMPLATE THAT. DOES PART OF WHATEVER "I" AM EXIST OUTSIDE OF SPACETIME? WE HAVE TOO MANNNN. AND THAT WOULD THEN GIVE RISE TO CONCIOUSNESS FOLLOWING MY ACID THEORY OF LIFE 😂 Its all connected hahaha. There was no time before the big bang, there was also no space!! The big bang THAT MADE SPACETIME, HOLD UP. took place OUTSIDE OF SPACETIME. IT HAD TO OF. IT HAPPENED RIGHT AT THE INSTANCE BEFORE SPACE AND TIME CAUSE IT CREATED SPACE AND TIME THATS WHY WE CAN NEVER SEE IT NO MATTER HOW FAR BACK WE LOOK. In order for time to exist the fastest speed at which information can travel is light speed. But light speed is actually defined as the distance at which light travels in a vacuum. "Distance" implies space. You cant have distance between things without space between them. Therefore you cant have time and causality without space. Hense. Space-time. Lol. So without there being a spacetime for the big bang to occur in. It can not occur in any specific location. Theres no location to have housed it in 😂 Time is a property of space. its literally just space. Its ALL space. Space is a mind bending concept. Spacetime is where the universe happens. Its all fuckn Space-time bro, I. I cant even right now 🤯😂💀
@@Opt1cILu5i0ni aint reading allat
@@Opt1cILu5i0n Just to let you know, I did read all of that. Don't stop thinking, my friend. Because this is fascinating to say the least.
@@Opt1cILu5i0n wait is this not a normal thing to think about? i think about it all the time.
@@Opt1cILu5i0nThese sorts of realizations is why i personally believe in a consious Creator. If a 'naked singularity' is a construct of 'maximum absurdity with infinite range', that basically translates to being with unlimited information and ability to release said information. Yet space-time was actively construed to hold information in a recognizable form by the beings that would inhabit said 'information'. WHY???. Why not just release truly unstable things all the time/all the space, why have a universal/axiomatic censor on the truly absurd and unstable? My only answer i can understand is that constraints were not necessary but curated, intended. Anecdotally nothing in the universe typically wishes to be alone so I would like to persume God inconcievable and infinitely full of 'information' wanted to share it and the universe as observed is how he shares his space(time) with everyone. Angels, animals, solar constructs, humans, everyone and everything that 'lives' is his, Jehovah's, passion project.

@@hunshown😟
Who composes your music? It is just so incredible
I'm only at 1:00 , to what I remember in order to break a black hole don't you set a fusion reaction as in a fusion bomb on three of its parallel accesses against the forwarding formation wave? In order to create that wave we use to do nuclear bombs just that extra little oof in the office direction to create a negative wave reaction slowly dispersing the black hole into its original entity which let's not even talk about the release of all that hawking radiation cuz we're just breaking the black hole right not worried about anything around it :)
The animation is truely next level! The amount of creativity involved in showing something so difficult to fathom or make any sense of is just out if this world. Really amazing work!
7:29 the music is so good
I'm still skeptical about elimination of event horizon since the horizon itself is a consequence of extreme gravitational pull where only the ligh can escape while also getting bend and beyond where it can't even escape
Thank you Kurzgesagt for singlehandedly feeding my anxiety disorder with new fears while also debunking those fears in a digestible way that makes sense to average people.
Eh, what of anything here could possibly scare you? And why are you watching it if it you know it'll trigger you?
@@ForeverTemplar It's not this that scares me but the knowledge that the stupidest people on our planet also happen to be some of the richest that would attempt doing something like this in the very distant future. I watch because I love information and theory.
just say youre american and move on, all you comments are just basically normal people toughts and issues that we take for granted and not turn into words. but americans....@@gyrthez246
you wouldent understand obviously. think for a bit, will you?@@ForeverTemplar
I wanted to add, The nature of a "singularity" is a mathematical one. Sort of when you divide a number by zero, basically you break our arithmetics and the result can be whatever you like. The "event horizon" is the last region of Space around the Black Hole where our mathematics still apply. Beyond the event horizon, while our maths doesn't work, phylosophy still does. I see how you wonderfully expanded the concept with this video. Thanks! Anthony
you hit on a key point here. it's just math. not any real thing that we have evidence of. black holes are just like dividing by zero. you can talk about it as a concept, but it's essentially meaningless. it has no basis in reality.
@@quickmythril2398 Except, we know black holes exist.
@@piotrd.4850 we know that they exist, but as far as I understand, anything inside of the event horizon doesn't exist, at least in the sense that anything inside of the event horizon no longer follows any of the rules that we use to define "existing"
What's your definition of philosophy in this context?
We can describe infinites, limits and black holes for that matter pretty well with our math. Just not with a high school math lol
i always learn so much!
the music in this video is phenomenal holy hell
I asked a physicist a couple months ago if anyone had calculated what it would take for a black hole to blow up, and he said nobody had ever tried. And here you guys are, with all your research. Nerds really are the best. ❤ Keep on asking the right questions!
There are no wrong questions
@@bullymaguire3867 But some are more useful and more fun than others
Small enough mass would cause it to evaporate rapidly, which would be an equivalent of explosion.
This is all theoretical tho…
The video didn't calculate anything either. Just mentioned what others hypothesize. It's all a fantasy, in the end. That physicist gave you a real answer instead of a fantasy.
The only way I've heard singularities effectively only existing 'in the future' explained in a way I've understood was that at the moment a singularity would be created because of the immense gravity warping space-time that moment is stretched indefinitely. It's nice to see it explained in a similar way again and as always kurzgesagt is greatly informative.
