No matter what direction you looked at it, you would see the same thing, either a wall of light that never escaped (like a star???) or, maybe nothing at all...But if you spend some time thinking about how light would work traveling outward from a black hole (which are purely only theoretical at this point), it certainly would not look anything like the 2d models you've seen online.

@@JustinOhio This is the closest thing we will probably ever get to a true picture of a black hole like it or not. So much of what you said is incorrect that it’s upsetting that you would refer to the work of real scientists as “simple models”. Light isn’t matter and thusly isn’t made of atoms or any other fundamental particles btw. I find it funny that you, knowing full well that those scientists are far more knowledgeable and studied on this topic than you, would downplay the work that went into creating the accurate model of a black hole with our current understanding of physics. A healthy amount of skepticism is necessary for science to happen but effectively baseless assumptions like this border on pure nonsense. Something else that bothers me about your comment is about this whole applying some “simple logic” to the topic. Black holes are likely the most extreme objects in the universe and often don’t follow the norms of what we see in the rest of the universe. Just using “simple logic” doesn’t work when the object in question essentially functions by its own set of rules. So how about we stop attempting to downplay what might be the single most incredible picture taken by humanity to date, ok?

12:15 "it would be the acceleration that would kill you first" In free fall you're in an inertial reference frame, so you don't feel any acceleration. If it weren't for the tidal forces, you wouldn't feel anything. In fact, the only reason you feel the acceleration in a racing car for instance, is that the accelerating forces are applied non-uniformly : the back of your seat transmit forces to the posterior side of your body which then squishes the anterior side. In a way, it's similar to a tidal effect : it's all about acceleration differentials, not absolutes.

Amazing video as always. A more personal question : how do you find such interesting topics for your video ? And after finding topics, how to find relevant resources ? Where to look ? As Google show only limited resources. Thanks for your time.

I remember reading a paper years ago that speculated that the answer to the Fermi paradox and the Drake equation is that the frequency that GRBs happen has slowed over time, and now allows enough time for intelligent life to evolve. In our part of the universe at least. So we're among the first, and the filter is early on in a species evolution but is getting less hazardous.

There's no empirical evidence for the drake equation. And there's no evidence that the frequency of GRB has slowed.

Fall into a magnetar? When would I possibly... Well, it IS still 2020. Go ahead Joe, let’s hear it.

Joe, your channel doesn't suck. Thanks for that.

Brilliant use of Giorgio Tsoukalos' pic at 14:31 👏 That dude looks like an alien most of the time with that crazy hairstyle

You know, last week I almost fell into one of them cheeky little magnetars. Sillly me.

1:38 " You can see the singularity and the event horizon there in the middle...". What was that joe! No you can't see the singularity. Only the absence of light in the middle shows whereabouts of the event horizon is; that's all we can see. BTW great fan of your work. Salute Bro.

Yes he screwed up. Also note that that dark shadow is exactly 2.5 times the actual event horizon distance since that is the distance at which light can orbit the black hole the light ring the EVT imaged is actually a projection of the photon sphere or photons which had enough energy to bend around the black hole just outside the light orbital distance. This is an important distinction as the black hole shadow is the closest you can see around a black hole in the region far closer to the black hole well within the ISCO(Innermost Stable Circular Orbit) where the accretion disk ends as no matter can orbit. The EVT was and is truly one of the most spectacular accomplishments of all time.

Well peeps, please give this guy some slack. He covers wide and vast range of topics with a great quality. Anyone who is invested in so many fields is bound to make a few little mistakes here and there. It's just being human. I'm really honestly thankful to people like him to give us great insights into important topics.

Dude you rock. I wish I never gave up my dreams when I listen to you.

Joe. The image of the SMBH at the centre of M87 was 'taken' using numerous Radio Telescopes set up like an interferometer. The invisible radiowaves were then processed by very powerful computers and algorithms that 'represented' their data as an image expressed in visible wavelengths (colours) of light that we can see. The event horizon and the SMBH towards the centre are not visible and cannot be visualised in any way since nothing escapes from there.

Absolutely the best Chanel on KZread, thx Joe!

Well that was pretty good.! But you got the process a little wrong plus backwards. The first thing that would happen if you were approaching the magnetic field of a magnetar is as follows. First every electrical impulse in your body would be short-circuited by an EMP strong enough to do that. Which would cause your death. And before ever reaching anywhere near the speed of light. It would rip the iron right out of your body. And so forth and so on with every other material your body is made out of. Because all materials respond to magnetic fields of a high enough intensity or Gaus. And so you would become spaghettifyd. But from the magnetic field not the gravity. If you could somehow make it close enough to the magnetar without being affected by its electromagnetic field. Then you'd be spaghettified by the gravity. But not before becoming spaghettified by the magnetic field. And while you may experienced some hallucinations. You would certainly die first from all the nerves in your body ceasing function at the same time. So you're right that he wouldn't feel anything. When all of this other stuff happens. Because you'd be long dead before then.

I was thinking this. It's not the acceleration that kills you; you wouldn't even feel that. It's the tidal force, IE the difference in force pulling on different parts of your body. For instance, your head may be pulled by 10,000 Gs while your feet are pulled at 10,100. You wouldn't feel the 10,000 Gs at all while in freefall, but you would certainly feel your feet being pulled away at nearly 1,000 ft/s². I haven't done the math, but I imagine you'd have to be well into the magnetic field before that happened.

@@chitlitlah Exactly. The Magnetic field stretches out for light-years. While a gravitational field that's strong for something that small in diameter would be much closer to the pulsar. Which means you would be pulled apart over a very short distance from the magnetar. Assuming the magnetic field didn't get you first. Which it would. Similar to a supermassive black hole. Which have such a long gravitational gradient. You can actually passed the event horizon before you even notice you're in the black hole. Thing is that you would die from heat and radiation present in the Accretion Disc around the black. From light-years away. Our biology is simply not designed to function even a couple of light-years away from such hostile environments.

I have to say, as much as I've heard about being spaghettified by black holes and other superdense objects, it's more interesting and novel to think about being killed by magnetism so great, it may electrocute you by pushing your electrons around in your body. If it doesn't, the magnetic field would get so intense, it would start ionizing your molecules and atoms and it's hard to even say what exactly would kill you: the heat, shutdown of synapses, being ripped apart, etc. Death by magnetism is something you don't hear about often.

Gravity has infinite effect, so technically you're already falling into one! Well, all of them. You're just falling into the Earth faster.

@giant bunch of shit Yep. At least according to our best theories. Every single atom in the universe is technically tugging on you at all times. Of course that pesky r^2 in the denominator means that the _strength_ of the effect is so tiny that it couldn't even be measured for distant objects given how much its overwhelmed by local objects like the Earth. (Also, there would be some cancelling since the universe is isomorphic on the largest scale, as far as we know, so the gravity pulling you in any direction would be approximately balanced by the gravity pulling you in the opposite direction.) Electromagnetism also has infinite effect but its opposing charges means it cancels even more completely (and on much shorter distance scales) than gravity does. But that does suggest that any future theory of quantum gravity is likely (but not guaranteed) to allow some form of infinite effects since both GR and QM contain that capability.

@giant bunch of shit No, general relativity describes gravity as a geometric structure of spacetime. But there's no "cut off" in its description of geometry any more than there's a cut off of the EM field in quantum mechanics. > atoms do not "hang" on you Uhh no? I'm not even sure what that would mean. Atom's don't "hang" at all. They just experience forces. > atoms are not ruled by deformation of space time in the first place > they are ruled by electromagnetism They are ruled by all forces. EM is just the strongest of those forces at the atomic scale so it "wins." At smaller scales (ie: subatomic) the strong force "wins" which is why we can have atoms with more than one proton in them. And at larger scales, gravity "wins" because EM's opposing charges tend to be pretty well balanced and cancel out over "large" distances. I mean maybe you're referring to something like the "electric universe" theory, which was indeed a serious theory 40 or 50 years ago, but it's long since been discredited by better observations. > you ned some serious education In what? Conspiracy theories? If you want to learn about the actual science, look up something like Leonard Susskind's lecture series (on Stanford's KZread channel.) He recorded entire courses worth of lectures and while that obviously doesn't include any labs or assignments or anything "hands on" like that, its still giving you the same knowledge taught to actual Stanford physics students. Though I should warn you, last I checked he had something like 9 or 10 courses, and they're all full-semester classes so you're looking at 8-10 episodes that are all like 2hr long each, per course.. a good couple hundred hours of nothing but ridiculously complicated math and theories :D.

@giant bunch of shit > - gravity isn't a force Uhh.. yes it is. If you mean its not a _quantized_ force like EM and QCD well, so far that's correct. We expect that it eventually will be though once we figure out how to build a useful theory of quantum gravity. Expect is not a guarantee of course, but its also far from a random guess. > - there is no such thing as a pulling force in gravity Ehhh that's.. up for debate, and ends up coming down to linguistic semantics rather than actual mathematical distinction. Under Newton's formulation of gravity it was seen as a "pull," while under Einstein its seen more as a "push." But the fact that you can formulate Newtonian mechanics as as low-mass limit of General Relativity suggests that the distinction only exists within the meager capabilities of human intuition. > - there is no way an atom that is 1 light day away from the earth has a gravitational space time curvature effect on you Why not? The math says it does. LIGO proves it does (what exactly do you think a gravitational wave is?) And LIGO has detected gravitational waves coming from 3 billion light years away. So whatever limit you think there is on gravity, its bigger than 3 billion light years. > - space time deformation has no infinite effect Again, why not? The math says it does and observations of distant objects tell us the math is (pretty much) accurate within a few percent margin of error. Certainly that's enough wiggle room for some greater theory to put a finite limit on the distance gravity can travel, but again LIGO works so any such limit must be very large. > - gravity is nothing else than a time dilation of accelerated objects No, gravity is a force that exists in the universe. _Our math_ describes it as a deformation of space time. Time dilation is simply an artifact of gravity's effect on spacetime. > - go and read the special theory of relativity, then read the general theory of relativity and then go back here and we can continue in this discussion Been there, done that. Nothing in either theory suggests an upper limit on the distance a force (or a "time dilation" if you insist) can have an effect. > show me where in the field equations is described space time curvature has an infinite effect I can't show you a _lack_ of limits. But I can reverse the question: Can you show me where a limit is imposed? > electromagnetism and deformation of space time are two absolutely uncomparable things Actually they're very comparable to a certain approximation. Look up "gravitomagnetism." Obviously its not a "real" theory but there are a _lot_ of similarities, including the lack of limit on the range of effect.
