SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the theory that our universe may exist within a black hole, stemming from the properties of a black hole's singularity, which is theorized to possess infinite density and gravity. The user proposes that if the singularity's gravity is infinite, it could potentially "suck in" space itself, leading to the possibility of multiple universes existing within black holes. The conversation highlights the need for a deeper understanding of black hole physics, particularly the complexities beyond Newtonian interpretations.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of black hole singularity properties
  • Basic knowledge of general relativity
  • Familiarity with the concept of infinite density
  • Awareness of the Big Bang theory
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the implications of black hole singularities in general relativity
  • Study the differences between Newtonian gravity and Einstein's theory of gravity
  • Explore the concept of multiverses and their relation to black holes
  • Investigate current theories on the structure of the universe and cosmic inflation
USEFUL FOR

Astronomy enthusiasts, high school students interested in theoretical physics, and anyone exploring advanced concepts in cosmology and black hole research.

Let me first say I am in high school and don't understand very much calculus or advanced physics. But through my independent work i have created a theory in which i personally can not find any flaws with. I would ask for constructive critisms on this theory. thanks!

It is my understanding that a black holes singularity has an extreme dense matter "ball" that creates such intense gravity that light itself cannot exscape. With this known we know that the gravity is so stong that the singularity is constinly getting denser on its own gravity. So the density of the singularity has a density of infinity. If the singularity is infinitly dense then the gravity around the black hole is also infinite.

So with the gravity being infinitly strong then it would have the ablity (this is were I am not so sure) to suck in space its self. Becouse the gravity is infinite then the space being sucked in must also be infinite. Now the big bang theory suggests a very small singularity for it to work properly thus is it possible that the known universe is literally inside a black hole? just on a much much smaller scale than that of what space would be on the outside? Also that there are universes inside our universes black holes?

Im not sure how well i have explained this if you have any questions please just ask..

Your speculations were not absolutely wrong up to that point even what happens inside the BH is much more complicated. You describe it in a more 'Newtonian' way and for the non-rotating BH.

Now let's stop at the sentence I quoted. Gravity does not "suck" space.
