: what is singularity?

274 viewsOtherPhysics

I watched a short video, where the guy said that everything that goes inside black hole becomes singularity.

But I can’t comprehend or visualize what singularity actually is?

It’s the point where our understanding of physics breaks down. If you follow the math, all the mass falling into the black hole ends up in the center with size zero. A true point with no radius. This seems really weird, but we have no idea why it would not do that. So a speculation is that there is more going on, but we haven’t developed the theories to explain it yet. Since nothing inside a black hole can communicate with something outside a black hole we have no way of finding out what happens.
