I was just wondering what peoples theories were about black holes. I know that we do not posses the technology to venture into one and even light cannot escape. What do you think is on the other side of a black hole. A wormhole to another regeion of space? A crushing force of infinate mass?
I'm just curious to see what other people think is inside a black hole. The only thing I know is that the closer you get to a black hole, the slower time goes. For example, if you where to have two identical watches and drop one in, the watch that is traveling towards the black hole would start to slow down. So say 30 seconds have passed since you dropped the one watch in, the watch that is travelling towards the black hole would only read 15 seconds have passed. Pretty interesting.
So whats your take?

"gravitationally collapsed" objects still require much more information to be fully understood, so denying the possibilities are silly.
we still don't even understand gravity
I believe gravity has gotten so strong that its compacted time and space in the center to the point where NORMAL physic and laws break down.
But whats happening on the quantum level?
Because of this, I believe worm holes CAN exist and still break "the 2nd law of thermodynamics"
In the quantum world the impossible is possible.
Take quantum tunneling for example
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/quantum_tunneling
Wormholes are "supposed" to be unstable and they are.
But only a small amount of time ans stability is needed to allow a suitable burst of particles to get out.

Of course any type of matter we know that was in the singularity would be "destroyed" or broken down into separated building blocks ---- particles, quarks, and strings for example.
These objects COULD possibly survive passing through a black hole on a quantum scale, and arrive via the Wormhole on the "other side" as a white hole AKA Big Bang
(WHs are only a theory right now, but so where blackholes)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/white_hole
string theory also claims that blob like containers (called "membranes") float around inside of the 11th deminsion.
Inside of them are other dimensions, and sometimes they crash into each other and cause them to blast ripples of energy and mass into each other causing big bangs.

There is no going inside of a black hole. It's a ball of matter, and not a hole. Things that go near a black hole end up like a bug on a windshield. The word hole in this case is misleading. It is not a hole in the sense of what we know here on Earth like a hole in the ground or a drain in the sink with sides and so forth.
A black hole is a sphere like our Earth or the Sun. Like the Sun, a black hole also is a star who's gravity is so strong that light cannot escape it's surface and shine out into space.
If you could get close enough to a black hole you would see what would appear to be a dark circle with no stars in it or showing from behind it . This is how it came to be called a black hole. Compared to and among all the bright stars in the heavens these strange phenomenon are like a dark hole in space.
Knowing this now you can see that anything that gets near a black hole does not go anywhere but to certain destruction

A black hole is a region of space whose gravitational field is so powerful that nothing can escape it once it has fallen past a certain point, called the event horizon. The name comes from the fact that even electromagnetic radiation (i.e. light) is unable to escape, rendering the interior invisible. However, black holes can be detected if they interact with matter outside the event horizon, for example by drawing in gas from an orbiting star. The gas spirals inward, heating up to very high temperatures and emitting large amounts of radiation in the process.[2][3][4]
While the idea of an object with gravity strong enough to prevent light from escaping was proposed in the 18th century, black holes as presently understood are described by Einstein's theory of general relativity, developed in 1916. This theory predicts that when a large enough amount of mass is present within a sufficiently small region of space, all paths through space are warped inwards towards the center of the volume, forcing all matter and radiation to fall inward.
While general relativity describes a black hole as a region of empty space with a pointlike singularity at the center and an event horizon at the outer edge, the description changes when the effects of quantum mechanics are taken into account. Research on this subject indicates that, rather than holding captured matter forever, black holes may slowly leak a form of thermal energy called Hawking radiation.[5][6][7] However, the final, correct description of black holes, requiring a theory of quantum gravity, is unknown.

It's a super-dense ball of matter, so dense that the distortion it creates in space-time will cause even light to be trapped. There is no going through a black hole. Anything that enters the phenomenon will become part of it.
If you could somehow remove the singularity (mass) from the equation without disturbing the space-time rift, you have yourself a wormhole that may very well emerge in another part of space and/or time. Black holes (in my opinion) hold some vital keys to developing a means of interstellar travel.

black hole is just a huge star or heavenly body with a gravitation force more that the speed of light. u cannot expext anything special inside a black hole. and i agree with u that time realy runs slow inside a black hole but this happens on earth too.if ur standing on the ground and ur friend is standing on top a building time will be faster where u r standing and i will be running slow on top of the building compared to ur position.
and do u know that a worm hole can help in time travell that is u can move to the past and the future using a worm hole.
keep asking questions.bye

Black Holes do no longer exist. No Probe or spacecraft has ever been close to one and no one on planet Earth has ever seen one up close. that's the main ridiculous theory generally happening and dumb sheeple definitely have confidence what they have been advised by ability of scientists and astronomers that Black Holes exists while in actuality they in no way seen each and every physique they are doing is verifying their very own version of effects and documents and shoving it in our faces and making choose us to have confidence in this delusion called black holes.

The fact that all conventional laws of Physics break down when a body is approaching a black hole suggests to me that they are the gateway to a universe with different laws of physics. I think that it is also possible that, as beings who conform to the laws of physics in this universe, it would be quite impossible for us to function in the one on the other side of the black hole and we would indeed be crushed.
