    Graduate How thick is a black hole event horizon?

    many thanks to @marcus,@Naty1 and @twofish-quant, im very happy that there is a lot of "strangeness" there,and your insights have pointed me in many areas to explore. thanks to your specifications i have much much food for thought! i have found a set of lectures covering this topic by Leonard...

    Graduate How thick is a black hole event horizon?

    hi, I am not a physicist so sorry if this is a stupid question, its just curiosity. how thick is the light like event horizon of a schwarzschild black hole, for instance, what the closest distance scale that an infalling photon and an escaping photon be, and whatI is "inbetween"? I've heard...
