Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» Has there ever been a Science Channel show or a scifi movie that depicted a human entering/getting sucked into a black hole?
So you saw the movie and it did not show what happens to a human body that got drawn into one?Maybe one day someone will make one and show what they think happens. Thank you for your reply Shuhak and Happy Sunday. I wonder. Will humans ever evolve to be much healthier stronger than they are now or are we at our height of best? I'm gonna ask.
According to what we currently know about black holes, a person would be spaghettified if they entered a black hole. There's a bit more to it that that (gravitational lensing, time differentiation,and such), but basically that's it. Not a pretty picture.
I once read an intriguing far-future science-fiction story about an astronaut studying a black hole by orbiting it; and returning safely. I forget the author and title but I think it imagined he and the spacecraft could be shrunk to an incredibly tiny size so the enormous force of gravity would not destroy them as they raced around it at somewhere approaching the speed of light.
In fact I think you'd be killed a long way out from it by the intense radiation emitted by the material being accreted around it: it's that radiation which shows the black hole (a dead massive star) is there.
Sounds like a nifty premise Durdle. Ever see the scifi movie about a surgical team miniaturized to go inside the bloodstream of someone and perform surgery? Thank you for your reply! :)
