    Graduate 1 = v^2 + t^2? and look at spacetime as velocity as x axis, time as y axis.

    I think it's more like sqrt(x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + t^2) = 1 4 dimensional law of pythagoras, using space and time. next step is using this to understand / work out a twin paradox :)

    Graduate Event Horizons & Falling Objects: Will Bob See It?

    I'm referring to something I've once read, and of course can't find right now. It said that when you are the traveler and plunge yourself into the black hole, you will never see yourself cross the Event Horizon, but the Horizon will keep always stay in front of you, until you hit the center...

    Graduate Event Horizons & Falling Objects: Will Bob See It?

    Is it correct that the event horizon is smaller for an observer at 2x the Scwarzschild Radius then it is for an observer at infinity? Light from the event horizon should not be able to reach infinity, but it could still reach the half-way observer, right?

    Graduate Can Black Holes Dance Around Each Other Without Merging?

    schwarzchild radius r = 2Gm / c^2 when the mass doubles, the radius doubles. surface = 4*pi*r^2 when the radius (r) gets 2x as big, the surface gets 4x as big. So the 'area' of the event horizon, gets 2x bigger then the total of the two original black holes.
