We now know that Supermassive black holes exsist in the center of most galaxys. These galaxys are traveling at great speeds. Is it possible that space/time remains in a warped phase behind the black hole like a tail of folded space/time. I suppose this could only exist within the event horizon however with the gravitational extemes of a supermassive black hole could it be possible that this tail extends beyond the event horizon creating a fold in space/time that will eventualy correct itself after the black hole has traveled a certain distance from that particular point in space/time. If this is a possibility then an object traveling across the tail at the point of space/time correction would be out of range for the event horizon effect but to an observer watching it would appear that the object has slowed until it crosses the center and then would appear to speed up. Like a runner jumping from one treadmill to another each one going in opposite directions. Any thoughts.

G'day

Some people whatch too many movies about black holes.

and have this image of one taken from the movies.


A theoretical Black hole has a singularity with an infinite mass.

In reality what you have is matter compacted to very high density that is able to generate electromagnetic fields and so on.

Time is measured via the speed of light or electromagnetic radiation. If this is affected by a high density matter the electromagnetic fields alters the speed of the EMR and thefore our means of communication.

Actual time can never be altered, only relative time of communication.

An interesting thought Reign1. The treadmill analogy is one which has merit. smile.gif

Thanks for the words of interest midwestern. I have a hard time with TIME. I know it's only a reference point with respect to us. But I don't really see time as a natural force like I do space. I use the term space/time in posts though. The idea of space effecting the speeds of mass and energy might also explain the horizon effect problem with cosmology. Any thoughts?

G'day from the land of ozzzzzzzz

This maybe of interest

Reign1, time is a constant and must be treted this way in equations. Don't factor time using any variable to distort the constant. Just a reminder in problem solving Reign!.
