NASA Releases Simulation Video of Inside a Black Hole, Showing Spaghettification Phenomenon

A simulation video of the inside of a black hole created by NASA has been released.

On the 7th, NASA published through its official YouTube channel a 360-degree simulation video that reconstructs the inside of a black hole using a supercomputer. The video showed what could happen when a camera enters a black hole. The camera, which started about 640 million kilometers away, arrived at the horizon of the black hole about 3 hours later, and was captured racing rapidly towards the center of the black hole as it crossed the horizon.

Jeremy Schnitman, an astrophysicist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center who produced the video, explained: “The moment the camera crosses the horizon, it is destroyed in just 12.8 seconds because the black hole turns into spaghetti.” Spaghettification, as he explained, is a phenomenon in which an object is stretched and destroyed like spaghetti due to the strong gravity of a black hole. He also added the production’s intention, saying: “Simulating a process that is difficult for people to imagine, such as a black hole, helps to understand the similarities and differences between the theory of relativity and the real universe.”
