    Normal maps are useless inside black holes. At the event horizon - the ultimate point of no return as you approach a black hole - time and space themselves change their character. We need new coordinate systems to trace paths into the black hole interior. But the maps we draw using those coordinates reveal something unexpected - they don’t simply end inside the black hole, but continue beyond. In these maps, black holes become wormholes, and new universes lie on the other side.

      @@mandaJt I was in the 3rd quarter of calculus based physics in college when I realized I was finally learning all the things i desperately wanted to know in grade school but nobody would teach me. And I thought: man, why couldn't they have taught me this back then, I wouldn't have nearly flunked out of middle school before my folks brought the hammer down about studying. And then I realized that all the folks I was helping in the math lab as a tutor were elementary school education majors who could barely pass basic algebra with loads of help, and it all made perfect sense.

    I’m wondering how seriously we should take the idea of just extending maps to see what they look like.

      To use a worm hole you would have to survive the near infinite density and your atoms being torn back into elementary particles or even some lower levels of time/space/particles we are unaware of. An infinite number of possibilities come from fantasy mathematics beyond the event horizon. The realm of the densest part of a black hole is probably unobtainable in experiments and the real physics of the super dense probably will never be known. Extending what we observe into the area is a logical approach but most likely doesn't come close to the reality of the real black hole.

  • @Vastin
    @Vastin Před 3 lety +1

    The problem with crossing the edge - any edge - of a Penrose diagram is that all those edges are *infinitely* far away. Doesn't matter if they bound on nothing, or if they bound on the event horizon of a black hole, it still takes infinite time to reach the edge, making it impossible to cross, even for light. The fact that you can draw a nice straight line across it in no way helps, because you are effectively stating that your line is infinitely long.
    Thus you are stuck with precisely the same problem you had with the Schwarzchild diagram - your timeline slows down infinitely as you approach this bounded 'edge' of the Penrose diagram, and you can never reach it, whether it's the unbounded 'edge' of the universe, or the Schwarzchild radius of a black hole, neither diagram allows a photon to escape our universe in less-than-infinite time.

    What if the "edge" of the universe was an inside-out black hole, or at least acted as such? Imagine a flat plane that only seems to stretch out infinitely, but if you were to zoom out enough you'd see the edges start to curve downward until they drop off straight downwards infinitely, just like the flat plane representation of a black hole. The resulting diagram would be shaped like a really big cylinder. I've watched so many of these I can't recall if this idea has already been thought up or not, but i thought I'd bring it up anyways bc i think its an interesting alternative idea to what the "edge" could be

    • @tanner.mackey.mp3
      @tanner.mackey.mp3 Před 4 lety +6

      By an "inside out black hole" do you refer to a white hole? Because if the "edge" of our universe were that, it would emit a lot of light and repel things from it with great force. Not only does that go against all the findings of the nature of the expansion of the universe, which is going outwards not inwards, but it also would likely negate effects we see like red-shifting and Hawkings background radiation. If the edge of our universe was specifically something that emit a great deal of light and gravitational force, I imagine that would be observable at some point when you get those star images where you can zoom into darkness and it reveals hundred of millions of stars packed together. I think a more accurate image of our universe would be a shape we can't physically imagine because all of its sides would be connecting to the opposite side, sort of akin to a sphere, but if at any given point on the sphere it connected to the point directly opposite of it on the other side of the sphere. The Universe very specifically does not have any sort of edge, and the PBS guy specifically mentions that being a bit of a problem in interpreting the flat plane representation of our universe. Just like how things get disproportional on the map of Earth, the Universe map is disproportional because it's intentionally putting an "end" on things that are infinite.

Especially true when the allowed energy levels reverse direction. It takes infinite energy to accelerate an object to SoL, but it generates infinite energy upon tunneling through. Net-zero to tunnel through. Where is the tunneling?

      I was wondering myself. Apparently, regarding the universe, you wouldn't see it accelerate unless you fire your rockets in order to slow down your fall and try to race away at near light speed. If you instead stay in free-fall, you will see the universe at a normal pace.
      Regarding the Hawking radiation, I found this: physics.stackexchange.com/questions/22498/from-where-in-space-time-does-hawking-radiation-originate.
      The diagram on the site shows an evaporating black hole, and apparently the horizon is at an 45 degree angle even in that case. That suggests that once you're in, you're doomed as usual. It's far from clear to me what happens to spacetime at the point where the black hole evaporates though.
      Maybe a good topic to ask for a future video? :)

      simply think of the person as a bunch of particles.

    Perelman solved 3 manifold theory and Poincare conjecture by omitting singularities of two spheres . It suggests us to form a connection between two something sphere like black holes or universes. Manyfold topology suggest us to form a global universe where each universe is atom like.

    I have learned a lot, but there’s some thing I can’t get my head around. But I think it’s exiting even i struggle to understand it

    Listening to Matts lectures is a bit like a Penrose diagram, everything is going fine then suddenly everything goes off in a tangent and im like by by 👋 aint got clue

    All have to say, I like that background painting a lot. I Love the colors scheme and contrast.

    I'm just glad that it doesn't end at our universe and continues into a next

    Black holes are just condensed matter that rotate faster than the speed of light shifting space while eating up matter and then ejecting the waste out of it's poles. The spin allows light to bend and be deflected in another direction which makes it seem like a dark spot.
