What's inside the event horizon

In summary, the conversations discusses the concept of a black hole and its event horizon, which marks the point of no return for anything that enters it, including light. The conversation also touches on the idea of a singularity within the black hole and the limitations of observational evidence in studying it. There is also a discussion about the reliability of using math to understand the event horizon and the possibility of exploring it in the future. The conversation concludes with a discussion about potential sensors for a black hole probe.

This thread has got way out of hand, and is now verging into the realm of personal theories. I think it best for all involved to lock this thread here.

What is the event horizon?

The event horizon is the boundary around a black hole from which nothing, including light, can escape.

What happens inside the event horizon?

Inside the event horizon, the gravitational pull of the black hole is so strong that it causes space and time to become infinitely distorted. This is known as the singularity.

Can anything survive inside the event horizon?

No, it is believed that anything that crosses the event horizon will be pulled into the singularity and destroyed.

What is the size of the event horizon?

The size of the event horizon depends on the mass of the black hole. The more massive the black hole, the larger the event horizon.

Is there any way to see inside the event horizon?

No, since nothing can escape the event horizon, it is impossible to see or gather any information about what is happening inside.
