How long does it take to get to the singularity?
Kurzweil believes that the singularity will occur by approximately 2045. His predictions differ from Vinge’s in that he predicts a gradual ascent to the singularity, rather than Vinge’s rapidly self-improving superhuman intelligence.
What would a naked singularity?
In general relativity, a naked singularity is a hypothetical gravitational singularity without an event horizon. Hence, objects inside the event horizon—including the singularity itself—cannot be directly observed. A naked singularity, by contrast, would be observable from the outside.
How do you reach a black hole singularity?
As far as I’ve learned, to reach a black hole singularity, you must first cross an event horizon. The event horizon has this particular property of putting the external universe on an infinite speed to the falling observer.
What happens when you fall into a black hole?
The Black Hole you are falling into may have crashed with several other black holes, stars and perhaps it will even be swallowed by an even bigger black hole before you reach the singularity. By the time you reach the singularity, it will have evaporated much of its mass through Hawking Radiation.
What will happen when we reach the singularity?
The time you experience is called proper time, and you may have only a few heart beats before you sre swallowed by the blacl hole. But on earth, all current and future generations will have completed their entire lives before you reach it. By the time you reach the singularity, the sun will have turned into a red giant and then faded and died.
Do black holes have a finite timespan?
This means that every black hole has a finite timespan, as long as this universe survives that long. Now if we go back to the falling observer, we had already established that such an observer would see the outside universe “speed up” infinitely.
