"Exploring Black Hole Mysteries: Size Differences and Misconceptions"
TL;DR Summary
Carlo Rovelli challenges common misconceptions about black holes, explaining that the singularity is not located at the center but rather in the future, as the funnel-shaped interior of a black hole stretches and narrows over time. Contrary to popular belief, the center of a black hole contains the collapsing star, not the singularity. The true singularity, where Einstein's equations fail and quantum effects dominate, lies in the future where the funnel's narrowing leads to infinite distortion of space-time. This insight is crucial for understanding the true nature of black holes and their singularities.
