Careful! You do not ever enter the event horizon in Space Engine. It is *not* the moment when the blackness around you is flat around your waist. The moment you touch the event horizon is actually when the outside universe behind you is compressed into a single dot. Space Engine's black hole simulation stops here, because it treats the event horizon like a solid surface; you cannot enter it, the same way you cannot enter inside a planet or star. You hit the event horizon like a solid surface, it is the moment when you spacecraft starts jerking on screen because of how the rendering works. At 17:42. That is not the singularity, that is just the event horizon.

a tip: watch movies on kaldroStream. I've been using them for watching a lot of movies recently.

[@fett716]

you say beautiful a lot...and i don't blame you

[@lemongrenade6135]

I could feel the terror of entering the black hole. Makes me never wanna go in one.

[@aidanrichter630]

The Entity you never know what's in it though. just because no light can pass the event horizon doesn't mean theres nothing on the inside

[@lemongrenade6135]

I know. But the thought and feeling of falling into complete blackness is pretty terrifying for me.

[@Jacob-bi1oq]

The Entity, nobody actually knows what would happen if you went in it.... you could theoretically live....

[@tgr3423]

Interstellar Labs More than likely you'd just get crushed by super gravity. I mean, we ARE talking about a region of space so dense that not even light can escape.

[@Jacob-bi1oq]

Happy Triscuit, your right but I did say theoretically

[@cks2020693]

Man although it's just a simulation it looks scary af when you see the universe disappear behind you

[@lyubaalexeievnapetrova9373]

* raises one eyebrow * Fascinating Gotta love astronomy, physics and maths. Good on ya, Anton!

[@czargs]

I never get bored on your videos, keep it up!

[@Gretchen1978]

well done as always. you seem to be one of the few universe sandbox you-tubers who has a good understanding of this material. you should talk about super massive black holes large enough to have a roche limit well inside the event horizon 😊 orbits at such a radius would be fascinating to see

great video anton ! keep it up

[@xezekial]

Great video as always

[@the-xm2qi]

what i learned is that getting close to a black hole makes you lag out in real life

[@kngpru9684]

I god damn.... Love this channel! You keep everything simple and great, I bet you'll be on the of best youtubers who lived at least in the science cat.! Why? Your videos.... are so simple, LOVE IT!

[@dawsonproductions7467]

May I coin a new phrase? When moving away from a black hole, we shall call it squishifacation. Don't forget to give me credit for that term.

[@jmm1233]

if your speed is increasing naturally from the grav well , point the craft in the Radial from the prograde , then use the main engines , take less time and effort to make a orbit ,

[@DrLeprikon]

The astronauts wouldn't be "suffering and made to feel horrible" if they were to turn on their engines to try and move away from the black hole while swiftly accelerating towards it, they would experience just the acceleration their engine provides.

[@baddog255]

I almost had a panic attack by watching this. Still, very well done and informative.

[@kedrednael]

You don't seem the have the black hole graphics maxed out :(! That's why you see the mirroring effect when you see more than your screens FOV because of the awesome lensing effects. It looks even better maxed out. I don't understand why you say the spaceship/astronauts would experience high G's when they fire the engines close to the black hole. As you said, you are just free-falling, like always. You will only feel the acceleration that you cause with the engines. The tidal forces and experienced G's are actually shown in game (if you try to navigate to 13:00 (when you are inside the event horizon) you'll have your mouse on it). So if you know the length of the ship I guess you could calculate how much tidal force is pulling on the ship, and in how much trouble you would be if you were on one end of the ship.

[@ZethKeeper]

Is that ship called "Endurance"?

[@SSFhighcommandJOHN]

Krieger? Who let you out of the lab?

[@groherzogtummapping867]

If this is what would happen, then Black Holes are friggin scary... Can I have a ticket for such ride? :D

[@mesakat104]

Did I just hear the most smartest person on youtube call a black hole a star? Im triggered help plz

[@dontquestionmyname5490]

The Mesa Kat because it is a star. Non-main sequence star.

[@voelkar156]

@@dontquestionmyname5490 the very definition of stars is that it is also luminous. A black hole is most definitely not a star

[@__________________________Fred]

This was very fascinating to watch and it's kinda scary to see. Makes me wonder if there is a way to add VR to this. I'd probably wet my pants

[@whiteautumn3167]

Correction* You would not see the universe speed up behind you because that would violate general relativity saying that one time frame is better than another one. Technically you should see the universe slowing down behind you.

[@flandrescarlet7227]

What if black holes really do equal time travel? While entering, time would slow down for everyone looking inside of it, but speed up for everyone outside it... So let's just say the people that went inside it acutally witnessed the end of the universe, while for the people outside it might look like you'd just disappear from existence... Well, as it is now, nobody would survive the trip, but it would be an interesting thought (although I'm aware that this theory is most likely false).

[@dontquestionmyname5490]

Clorox Bleach this is absolutely consistent, the theory is not false. In tour frame of reference, time stops for you and you can see the end of the universe (if you somehow survive the tidal force) The people observing will see your light being stretched to infrared and disappear

[@absoluteManiac]

and the universe is gone now forever. and we can't escape from it anymore.

[@Austinflank]

Technically, we are already indirectly orbiting this black hole.

[@melneifert]

That was an amazing video! Thanks for making this episode!

[@gavintino2]

SO CLOSE TO 50k

[@TristanVeerbeek]

Could we use a warp drive to jump through or out of a black hole? In theory it should be possible right?

[@Gigatony74]

i wonder what would be the effect of the gravity inside the event horizon of the black hole on subatomic particules. I mean, would the laws of the subatomic keep going ? Electron, protons, neutrons, etc.. Would they still behave as they normally do in a "normal" environment ?

[@spiritaam6689]

This game looks beautiful when moving the camera, pc specs?

[@Hikarmeme]

Hey Anton, does your space engine crash very often?

[@spaceenginegameplayandwalk3858]

How did you do that???my ship is always sucked inside when i turn time on

[@peterpalumbo1963]

If the ship were slightly out of phase with reality we could likely go through the black hole without it effecting us. If the event with the USS Eldridge actually happened, being slightly out of phase with reality, could be similar.

[@hektorwyler9374]

Black holes are so creepy

[@vasanthballa3569]

Anton, at 10.55, everything that is seen is blue shifted. However should it not be red shifted as we are moving away from the stars at the speed of light, meaning that the light itself must "chase" us. And when we look into the black hole, it should be blue shifted, right?

[@TheNBKiller]

True, should be red shifted in the direction of retrograde.

[@AlexTheGamePlan]

I did not think you could get that close to a black hole and survive... I thought I'd be a couple light years away and you start turning into spaghettified human meat...

[@finisterre2415]

Depends on the size, with a small Black hole you would be spaget before you even touched the horizon, however in super massive black holes, you could go past the event horizon and be fine for hours before you felt anything.

[@TheNBKiller]

When crossing the event horizon you said you would see the death of the universe behind you. What if, due to Hawking radiation, the black hole dissipated before you reached the singularity? Would that be possible?

[@DrLeprikon]

Why is the orbit not stable? If both your periapsis and you apoapsis lower, where does the energy go?

[@jadersantana4720]

What version of space engine are you using? My space engine doesn't have black holes as beautiful as yours.

[@czargs]

Last version, 0.980

[@superdurpgamesnl2608]

your always traveling in time or almost

[@gkpgeo]

Even simulation is great.... Much hardwork vth little info we knew abt black hole

[@dek5775]

if space sandbox 2 created

[@Ttvkevo]

Can you make a video where the planets switch places

[@osotanuki3359]

So you become a pancake before a spaghetti? Sounds fun

[@bronumero7334]

Been here since 200 subs lol.

[@CononialLP]

been here since -3 subs lol.

[@evanesswein7376]

4:30 triangles black holes are illuminati JK

[@sk1e]

Could you may be make a couple of tutorial videos for Space Engine?

[@whatdamath]

thanks for the idea, I will one day!

[@anam.caballerowilson9421]

Circling spiral

[@serris-x6695]

Always thinking about how to get inside, but... What are the black holes made about? Are they solid, liquid, gaseous, plasmatic? They have some kind of "cortex"?

[@ThorKipperberg]

they are one of the few types of remnants after supernovas,. Nobody really knows what a black hole is,. its a star remnant, but whats left inside the "black hole" is very uncertain and unknown,. it could be somekind of black dwarf, a black neutron star, who knows ,what it really is,. whats known is that it is super dence, and have an extremly gravitational pull, that even light cant escape it,.

[@Sentiqus1]

Thor Kipperberg Probably finally most correct and reasonable answer about black holes here. Except there really isn't a neutron star. If there was neutron star, then it would be neutron star. The strength of object's gravitational pull is based on its mass. We know that neutron stars are made of neutrons and has density of millions of tons per 1 cubic centimeter. An object this massive already curves space around itself almost as a black hole, but light can still escape. We simply don't know in what state the matter is inside of black hole as you correctly said and i would stop there. Rest is just a fantasy.

[@dontquestionmyname5490]

Serris -X one dimensional point object with the mass of 4 million solar masses

[@TheNBKiller]

A singular point consisting of infinite density.

[@TheNBKiller]

Diego Arango Someone who knows what they're talking about would explain why I'm wrong. Unfortunately, you cannot dismiss the fact, I stated, so easily.

[@evansmith00]

Hello wonderful person.

[@markoedits2231]

hey i found a star that has a blackhole!

[@PC-lu3zf]

Imagine the real thing!

[@MasterShot-ke1mr]

Black holes "break" physics. once inside, you may be going faster than light.

[@XeSHShadow90]

what is the name of this game ?? btw is it free to dowbload ??

[@jonahholmes6777]

Time warping when orbiting messes up your orbit in space engine.

[@CartoonzyOFFICIAL]

Wow

[@Alstronome]

ah stiler spaceshipe en orbite

[@elaxter]

Notification squad etc.

[@almike5816]

It would be so cool if Space Engine could be downloaded on mac like if you agree

[@theredstonehive]

I just sent the same spacecraft in a Black Hole and it just zoomed thru the Black Hole but for some reason the game doesn't simulate Specification.

[@burbanpoison2494]

TheRedstoneHive neither does spellcheck.

[@burbanpoison2494]

🍝

[@Mernom]

SE Doesn't do physics beyond gravity I think, so the spacecraft is treated as a single object.

[@hunterxhunter7174]

can we go at the speed of light because of a gravitational pull ?

[@DrahcirSmada]

Hunter X Hunter we could get close but not that actual speed of light. The bonds that holds atoms together can't travel that fast so theoretically if an attempt was made then the atoms of whatever the object is would lose its form and technically disentagrate.

[@hunterxhunter7174]

DrahcirSmada Mmm interesting, then theorically can the elementary elements could travel faster than the speed of light ?

[@dontquestionmyname5490]

Hunter X Hunter no, elemetary particles need infinite energy to accelerate to the speed of light. Nothing can be infinite in this finite universe

[@TheNBKiller]

Hunter X Hunter Nothing which has mass can travel at the speed of light.

[@alexandertheprotogen6180]

9.80 m/s^2 on earth to be more exact

[@SolarisSaber]

What would happen to the earth if it passed nearby the sun for 3 seconds?

Hi

[@jourdainren3903]

da way is at 0:05

[@NclogicLMAO]

12:39 he said star not black hole

[@EduardA-xs8ls]

That’s the name of the black hole. Sagittarius A*. The asterisk is often pronounced as star.

[@dansands6363]

Is Space Engine super demanding on the PC?

[@theradin1278]

Danny Sands not really. I have a pc for 300$ and it runs smoothly.

[@prithvim7]

Theradin whats the Hardware? mine stutters badly at loading planets.. i have i7 4500 8gb 2gb r9m270x

[@blacktempluh3360]

I have i5 4590, 8GB RAM, RX 470 MSI 8GB. Runs pretty good. Locked on 60fps

[@MrJohn1966elliott]

Mine is Gigabyte GA-Z87X-OC with Intel i7 4770K OCed 4.3Ghz and DDR3 Ram of 32GB, Twin SLI Overclocked GTX 760's, run Windows 10 and Space Engine run prefect ( Top High Graphic and 60fps !!! )

[@MrJohn1966elliott]

Ah Yes, STI Twin Overclocked GTX 760s same like one GTX 960 or 970. But Gtx 760s are very old. Some games are working well.

[@erdngtn9942]

Am I the only one having a panic attack

[@teamraddle7151]

You should of done the Avalon ship from passengers

[@teamraddle7151]

If it had it

[@VipKamaro]

I was playing Space Engineers once and i created a black hole a little bit too close to my character and it sucked me in. It was falling into it so fast and it made me so uncomfortable that i had to exit the game.

[@aidanrichter630]

I love how comments are cancer on this channel

[@castrator8057]

Aidan Richter most of them are pretty good

[@burbanpoison2494]

Cuzeg Spiked as KZbin goes, it's pretty constructive.

[@guymandudething2657]

Go into a black hole with a ship and try to get out that would be interesting.

[@user-nd8cs9ph4t]

Jake G imposible to scape a black hole

[@gamingwithmeobviously5753]

It's impossible 💀💀 Im a bit late btw dont worry

[@wildanimals9411]

can i get space engine?

[@Halo1138]

This video makes me feel uncomfortable at a very deep level. Nothing should be that close to... nothing.

[@metalim]

Kinda pointless, as SpaceEngine does not limit speed to c, and does not apply relativistic effects to objects (except red shift by distance, and black hole image deformation).

[@BetaBugz]
