Getting back to the thread -
One thing I recentl;y learned is that Russian physicists call a Black Hole a "Frozen Star".
The name implies a perspective that looks at time impacts more than on light. And from that perspective, "frozen stars" a pretty cool. An observer who falls into one may get crushed, but in the time frame of those outside the hole it will take almost forever to happen.
So if I fell into a a black hole right now and texted you guys, you might see 1 character cross your screens every thousand years while to me, I'd be texting at a normal rate on my way to being crushed.
