What's inside a black hole?

Question

I know no one really knows, but what would (theoretically) be inside a black hole? A ton of light, since none can escape? ...Ideas?

Answer 1

I'm glad that you asked this question because I've actually been thinking about this for a long time.

Black holes. Well, they're basically infinitly dense matter with a gravitational field so strong that it litterally bends space. This is due to the immense matter that is contained within. How? Well imagine a star's gravity. A baby blackhole would have that star's pulling power and as it absorbs more matter, its gravity field and strength would increase exponentially.
Simply put, as more and more matter is absorbed, the gravity field is so strong that for normal matter to exist in it, it would be virtually impossible which is why i belive that the matter that has once existed has become a form of raw material so densly packed that at the center of it, matter is becomming energy.
(matter and energy are exchangeable as dictated by einstein's E=MC2 which dictates that E=Energy and M=Mass of an object times the speed of light SQUARED!!!! I mean holy crap man, thats alotta energy, which btw, states that technically, a suger cube can destroy the earth...anyway...)
At the center of a black hole, there is a sphere of EXTREMELY dense matter with (given time of course) the gravitation pull of a whole star system. Thus, in theory, a black hole never ceases to stop pulling in more spacial objects in. A black hole itself,however, would never really increase in size since each time it absorbs light and matter, its gravity would increase thus keeping the size at a constant.
At some point however, black holes would suck everything in and eventually, there would be alot of black holes left in the universe and they would eventually suck each other in and eventually become one big black hole with an empty universe. When this stage has been reached, the matter, with its gravitational field so strong, would collapse on itself or it would rip space apart. When it collapses, all the matter sucked in would be released in a form of energy and therefore creating a "Big Bang".

Answer 2

Theoretically, there'd be a relatively small core of matter, so dense that the gravity will tear a hole in space time itself. Nobody knows for sure, as it's impossible to observe the core directly.(our sense of sight being based on light, would'nt work as the escape velocity of a black hole is faster than light.) Scientists have detected black holes from the radiation emitted by matter as it passes through the "acretion disk." (I know my spelling sucks) But the forces inside a black hole distort the laws of physics. But the gravity inside a black hole's singularity would rip apart matter down to subatomic particles.-- Trivia fact:A tablespoon of matter from a neutron star. (the next densest thing to a black hole) would weigh 1million tons.

Answer 3

Most people here are right, you're looking at percievably nothing. Everything that gets sucked into a black hole gets crushed and compacted beyond recognition to the combined size of an atom. So, in short, everything ever sucked in is inside. As for what happens to it deep inside the black hole... I don't think we'll ever know.

Answer 4

It's called a singularity. The immense gravity crushes everything that enters the black hole into an infinitley small point. In other words, entire stars and planets are crushed until they are smaller than the eye of a needle.

Answer 5

Maybe you can actually go str8 through the black hole and end up in a different dimension or in a differnt part of the universe. Of course, how you would exit might be something that wouldn't make it worth the trip.

Answer 6

Last time i was in a Black Hole, i met up with all my deceased friends and family, so i figure "Heaven" must exist in all Black Holes

I would think nothing could exsist in a black hole. The gravitational stress and density of the hole would just crush everything.

Answer 8

Well, I guess blackness, light, space rocks, anything that floats along WILL get trapped so maybe even some lost spaceships!

Answer 9

the remnants of a collapsed star and gravity so strong that not even light can escape

Answer 10

no idea..but i think there's nothing in it. because it is believed, that black hole was somekind of passage through other place in the space with different time..it's where that all the thing that suck in goes.
