Damn nature, you scary.

edit: glad to see my 1000th post went to good use xD

Black holes do that, not space. Space suffocates your ass.
Time doesn't really exist in a black hole; if you get near it, it slows down, but on the event horizon it stops.
Not so sure. The event horizon is far from the epicenter of the black hole, and that is where time stops. You won't get to see that, because you're dead once you're in the singularity.

The reason it stops while you're outside the event horizon? Time dilation.

If you're inside a black hole's gravity field, time appears normal, but everyone outside it is "sped" up. It's the opposite in the other side, except "slown" down.

This is exactly what I was thinking, and my thought that I had seems to be true, yes?
It has to be a yes this time. That's what I know.

I haven't done any research on this matter, but...how could we know that from mathematical models? Isn't the whole concept of an event horizon meaning that it twists apart standard rules of our time, and space? Wouldn't that mean the mathematical models used could very well be rendered null?

I'm curious as to how people know this.
just a bunch of theories Smile

Of course. Everything starts with a theory.

We measure the effect that Black holes have on the surrounding area, collect data, find correlations, then process everything into an equation. Then we run that equation against data sets from other black holes to test the accuracy of it.

Then someone writes a paper on it.

Incorrect, a theory is a model that is created after you run through the scientific method. It's one of the last steps.

What? I always talk like this, Kingy.
