Black holes are the most extreme objects in the universe yet every galaxy has one at its centre.
Buy Chris' book "Einstein's Monsters: The Life and Times of Black Holes" : geni.us/NL3M8Hu
Chris Impey explores the questions this profound discovery can help answer and the role black holes have played in theoretical physics.
Chris Impey is a University Distinguished Professor and deputy head of the astronomy department at the University of Arizona. His research has been supported by $18 million in grants from NASA and the National Science Foundation, and he has had 24 projects given time on astronomy's premier research facility, the Hubble Space Telescope.
This talk was filmed in the Ri on 9 May 2019.

    • It's also the only video I've seen where the presenter doesn't claim to know more than is known. I was considering the possibility that nothing exists inside a black hole before I watched this, after thinking of the problem of time dilation at the event horizon, and this guy is the first I've ever heard mention it as a possibility. The thing is, time pretty much stops at the horizon, at least from our perspective, so how has anything had time to fall beyond the event horizon? Doesn't make sense, does it? I suspect everything that's ever fallen into it is on a two-dimensional surface. Maybe there is no "inside" as such. Great talk anyway!

Graviational lensing couses the light from galaxies behind them to get stronger, could that be the case also with gravity (reffering to the first question that the gravity would have been bent)? And if that is the case would it be possible due to the superpostions of gravitational waves to create a "gravity tsunami"?

Relativity doesn't disappear at the horizon. Just because an observer would be spagettified doesn't break the rules.. the observer would be frozen in time to outside observers but would see the information .. the socks falling across the horizon with his self... In his timeframe.... No paradox.. just not easy to visualize.

    • The information isn't lost until the black hole evaporates. The paradox doesn't appear until we make the assumption that Hawking radiation is purely thermal in nature. In the meantime they have proven that it is not and can not be. Most of the "information" simply comes out as highly correlated radiation late in the evaporation process under proper quantum mechanical analysis.

  • I have an idea about how black holes work, which seems to be a straightforward consequence of all the relevant theories in physics, but I’ve never saw it being explained in a such way, so I might be wrong. Did I miss something? Here is the idea: Matter falling into the black hole NEVER reaches its center, it doesn’t accumulate in a single point, but it is frozen i to the surface. To explain it, let’s review how matter falls into the black hole from 2 different point of view: POV of an outside observer: An object falls towards the event horizont. But since the object’s clock slows down in the presence of strong gravitational field, we see this falling object slowing down as it is getting close, and effectively freezing on the event horizont (which we don’t literally see, because light doesn’t escape there). POV of the falling object: Our internal clock has constant speed, so we don’t experience any slowdown, so we keep falling through the event horizont towards the center. Or do we? Our time slows down from outer perspective, so the outside world’s time speeds up from our perspective. The entire life of the universe is happening in fast forward, before we are even getting fully throuh the event horizont. In infinite time, we would reach the center eventually, but black holes doesn’t live forever. It evaprates through Hawking radiation, so basically just as we reach the event horizont, we evaporate back to space skipping zillions of years, while the universe is dying around us. So basically we are frozen into the surface of the black hole throughout the entire life of the black hole, until it is evaporated. However since we add mass to the black hole, it also gots a bit bigger by our mass, and the event horizont moves out. And that’s how information is encoded into the black hole. Every particle, which has ever fallen into it, just adds a new layer to it, and the particle is encoded into that layer, until that layer evaporates. Does that sound right?

    • Q&science Yes, but the conclusion is missing, which is my point. We don’t fall “into” the black hole. We are frozen on the surface, thus information is not lost. And then it spits us back into space through Hawking radiation.

    • @@juzoli you do fall into it though...it is only relative to a bystander that you are frozen in place. The point is that the person falling is in fact consumed by the black hole, it's just because of relativity and the time difference that it appears to us that they never actually disappear. If an outsider was to watch for an infinite amount of time, the person would eventually disappear. When speaking about "encoding," one is implying that, yes, the object has been consumed by the black hole, but perhaps the object's information- not the object itself- is stored at the event horizon.

  • This is the first time I really understood evaporation from a black hole. There has always been a voice in the back of my head that said that the number of escaping virtual particles should be 50/50 and I didn't understand the asymmetry. When he explicitly mentioned mass OR energy loss it clicked that an anti-particle that escapes from its pair could hit a real particle and some of the energy from that interaction could be radiated away.

Ligo, CMB and Higgs Nobel prizes were not even peer reviewed . these headless chickens do not even control their primary instrument: Thought, mind, and they havent got a clue what Consciousness is. Try stop your thoughtflow for 5 minutes and it is obvious that these "scientists" are anything but methodical. And then there is the awkward problem of GR not being compatible with QM. "we need a new einstein" said Michiu Kaku. Nope, we need honest scientists that stick to the rulebook, of being methodical and observation based.

The thing is, GR doesn't explain the universe in which we live... it only goes so far. As did the Newtonian physics that came before it. A better theory will be routed in the quantum world. After all, that's what the universe is made of. That's what we are made of (quantum stuff).

Not only by starting from the premise that we'd use today's top-notch knowledge, tech, materials etc. but also assuming that even if we got more advanced technology (some bordering on new physics/Science Fiction) which would enable us to directly observe a Black Hole like a space probe/spaceship equipped with a Fusion-Drive capable of reaching 0.5c or more (Time Dilation kicks in), Warp-Drive or even a Wormhole-Observatory (whatever you can imagine) we'd fail to observe 1, 2 or 3? ps: the methods mentioned above just serve as plot-devices no matter if possible or not, it's about the implications of my question and a "What If?"

  • so if the mass of an object decreases as it s elevation decreases. might the matter at the poles become reduced in gravity. i mean the torus will bend space way more than the black hole,which would further increase the gravity which is probably squared near the event horizon, and also the swartzfeild radius of the entire mass would remain the same. while i am assuming the mass near to the black hole on the disc plane will increse? so the matter at the poles gets sucked into the disc and all of the light trapped in the schwartzfeild radius gets released; thus lowering its mass and allowing the matter and light inside to be sucked out into the disc, which causes another burst from the pole.... etc
