I dont like how that graphic states the center of a black hole is "infinite density". I think it's more accurately "incalculable density". Its not infinite, we just can't calculate it. Maybe a little ego there just calling it infinite instead of just saying "we can't figure it out"

Black hole?

No problem. I will repair the black hole once I get the infinity stones back from Thanos.

The current XKCD:


Title text: [five years later] Ok, it seems we were accidentally zoomed in slightly too far. But imagine there's a cool-looking twisted accretion disc just outside this black square!

Seems awfully old fashioned to load up the info on hard drives and fly them back for processing in 2017. I imagine they would be able to get network connectivity to all of those locations except the south pole. Maybe too expensive for a short term project..

I’m not sure that’s accurate though.

Gravitational singularity

A gravitational singularity, spacetime singularity or simply singularity is a location in spacetime where the gravitational field of a celestial body becomes infinite in a way that does not depend on the coordinate system. The quantities used to measure gravitational field strength are the scalar invariant curvatures of spacetime, which includes a measure of the density of matter. Since such quantities become infinite within the singularity, the laws of normal spacetime cannot exist.[1][2]

Every illustration of a black hole I see has jets coming out and yet every explanation of black holes I read says nothing escapes them.

yeah
I have a feeling our knowledge of these systems is very basic. I think it's impossible to understand fully with current knowledge.
