What happens inside a black hole? The distressing possibilities

SPOILER ALERT! In a recent movie- Interstellar , 2014– an astronaut played by Matthew McConaughey and a rectangular robot fall into a black hole and survive to tell it.This movie featured a fancy scientific advice, such as the physical Kip Thorne , involved in the discovery of gravitational waves caused by the interaction of two black holes, but that did not prevent them from being too benign and fanciful when describing what could happen to you within a black hole. What happens inside a Black Hole? The distressing possibilities Black holes are points in the universe where the force of gravity is so intense that not even light can escape them.They can be the result of the collapse of red stars or the way in which Some galaxies are structured.This phenomenon was one of the predictions of the theory of relativity in the early twentieth century, with key contributions in the sixties and seventies, by physicists such as Stephen Hawking, and with a discovery in the new millenni...

And you, also "procrastins"?

And you? Procrastines too? If you don't, we are sure that you know someone who does it continuously and that, surely, makes you despair.But what does this disturbing word really mean?

And what about people who spend all their time in front of a computer screen letting out "real life" ? Sometimes, it is much easier to let ourselves go, evading responsibilities, than to put means t...

Is it possible to have two pupils in one eye? As you know, the pupil is a tiny hole located in the central part of the iris where light enters the inside of the eye; This hole dilates and contracts according to the surrounding clarity, and is apparently always black.It is responsible for regulating the light that reaches the retina, and we all have two, one in each eye.They move thanks to two muscles, pupil sphincters , which open and close it. Now, having two pupils sounds like science fiction, something you would see in Hollywood movies and, of course, it would be a distinctive feature of non-human beings, or of evolutionary processes to adapt to extreme and apocalyptic situations. But no, having two pupils, although it is an extremely rare condition, is not impossible, and has a medical na...

What is the age of planet Earth?

The age of planet Earth is something that scientists have been discussing for a long time.The first calculation was made in the middle of the century XVII from the data extracted from the book of Genesis.Since that time other experiments and calculations have been carried out that, with greater or lesser scientific rigor, have tried to clarify this question. Already in 1654 , A scholar named John Lightfoot , whose calculations were based on the book of Genesis in the Bible, proclaimed that the Earth had been created precisely at 9 o'clock.tomorrow, Mesopotamia time, on October 26 of the year 4004 BC . At the beginning of the XVIII century, a scientist, the count of Buffon , warmed a small replica of the planet he created and measured the speed to which it cooled.Based on these data I estimate that the Earth was about 75,000 years old. In the 19th century, the Physical Lord Kelvin I use different equations to establish that the Earth was between 20 and 4...
