Spaceship Orbiting Black Hole in Space Engine 

Careful! You do not ever enter the event horizon in Space Engine. It is *not* the moment when the blackness around you is flat around your waist. The moment you touch the event horizon is actually when the outside universe behind you is compressed into a single dot. Space Engine's black hole simulation stops here, because it treats the event horizon like a solid surface; you cannot enter it, the same way you cannot enter inside a planet or star. You hit the event horizon like a solid surface, it is the moment when you spacecraft starts jerking on screen because of how the rendering works. At 17:42. That is not the singularity, that is just the event horizon.

isn't it supposed to be a library inside a black hole?? :)

you say beautiful a lot...and i don't blame you

well done as always. you seem to be one of the few universe sandbox you-tubers who has a good understanding of this material. you should talk about super massive black holes large enough to have a roche limit well inside the event horizon 😊 orbits at such a radius would be fascinating to see

* raises one eyebrow * Fascinating Gotta love astronomy, physics and maths. Good on ya, Anton!

I could feel the terror of entering the black hole. Makes me never wanna go in one.

I god damn.... Love this channel! You keep everything simple and great, I bet you'll be on the of best youtubers who lived at least in the science cat.! Why? Your videos.... are so simple, LOVE IT!

Man although it's just a simulation it looks scary af when you see the universe disappear behind you

if your speed is increasing naturally from the grav well , point the craft in the Radial from the prograde , then use the main engines , take less time and effort to make a orbit ,

The astronauts wouldn't be "suffering and made to feel horrible" if they were to turn on their engines to try and move away from the black hole while swiftly accelerating towards it, they would experience just the acceleration their engine provides.

I never get bored on your videos, keep it up!

Is that ship called "Endurance"?

You don't seem the have the black hole graphics maxed out :(! That's why you see the mirroring effect when you see more than your screens FOV because of the awesome lensing effects. It looks even better maxed out. I don't understand why you say the spaceship/astronauts would experience high G's when they fire the engines close to the black hole. As you said, you are just free-falling, like always. You will only feel the acceleration that you cause with the engines. The tidal forces and experienced G's are actually shown in game (if you try to navigate to 13:00 (when you are inside the event horizon) you'll have your mouse on it). So if you know the length of the ship I guess you could calculate how much tidal force is pulling on the ship, and in how much trouble you would be if you were on one end of the ship.

May I coin a new phrase? When moving away from a black hole, we shall call it squishifacation. Don't forget to give me credit for that term.

Correction* You would not see the universe speed up behind you because that would violate general relativity saying that one time frame is better than another one. Technically you should see the universe slowing down behind you.

what i learned is that getting close to a black hole makes you lag out in real life

If this is what would happen, then Black Holes are friggin scary... Can I have a ticket for such ride? :D

Did I just hear the most smartest person on youtube call a black hole a star? Im triggered help plz

I almost had a panic attack by watching this. Still, very well done and informative.

That was an amazing video! Thanks for making this episode!

What if black holes really do equal time travel? While entering, time would slow down for everyone looking inside of it, but speed up for everyone outside it... So let's just say the people that went inside it acutally witnessed the end of the universe, while for the people outside it might look like you'd just disappear from existence... Well, as it is now, nobody would survive the trip, but it would be an interesting thought (although I'm aware that this theory is most likely false).

Technically, we are already indirectly orbiting this black hole.

This was very fascinating to watch and it's kinda scary to see. Makes me wonder if there is a way to add VR to this. I'd probably wet my pants

and the universe is gone now forever. and we can't escape from it anymore.

great video anton ! keep it up

Great video as always

Anton, at 10.55, everything that is seen is blue shifted. However should it not be red shifted as we are moving away from the stars at the speed of light, meaning that the light itself must "chase" us. And when we look into the black hole, it should be blue shifted, right?

i wonder what would be the effect of the gravity inside the event horizon of the black hole on subatomic particules. I mean, would the laws of the subatomic keep going ? Electron, protons, neutrons, etc.. Would they still behave as they normally do in a "normal" environment ?

When crossing the event horizon you said you would see the death of the universe behind you. What if, due to Hawking radiation, the black hole dissipated before you reached the singularity? Would that be possible?

What version of space engine are you using? My space engine doesn't have black holes as beautiful as yours.

Black holes are so creepy

This game looks beautiful when moving the camera, pc specs?

Why is the orbit not stable? If both your periapsis and you apoapsis lower, where does the energy go?

If the ship were slightly out of phase with reality we could likely go through the black hole without it effecting us. If the event with the USS Eldridge actually happened, being slightly out of phase with reality, could be similar.

SO CLOSE TO 50k

Could you may be make a couple of tutorial videos for Space Engine?

Could we use a warp drive to jump through or out of a black hole? In theory it should be possible right?

I did not think you could get that close to a black hole and survive... I thought I'd be a couple light years away and you start turning into spaghettified human meat...

Can you make a video where the planets switch places

4:30 triangles black holes are illuminati JK

Even simulation is great.... Much hardwork vth little info we knew abt black hole

How did you do that???my ship is always sucked inside when i turn time on

Always thinking about how to get inside, but... What are the black holes made about? Are they solid, liquid, gaseous, plasmatic? They have some kind of "cortex"?

your always traveling in time or almost

if space sandbox 2 created

Hey Anton, does your space engine crash very often?

Hello wonderful person.

So you become a pancake before a spaghetti? Sounds fun

Been here since 200 subs lol.

Circling spiral

Black holes "break" physics. once inside, you may be going faster than light.

It would be so cool if Space Engine could be downloaded on mac like if you agree

what is the name of this game ?? btw is it free to dowbload ??

I was playing Space Engineers once and i created a black hole a little bit too close to my character and it sucked me in. It was falling into it so fast and it made me so uncomfortable that i had to exit the game.

Imagine the real thing!

hey i found a star that has a blackhole!

da way is at 0:05

Time warping when orbiting messes up your orbit in space engine.

can we go at the speed of light because of a gravitational pull ?

I just sent the same spacecraft in a Black Hole and it just zoomed thru the Black Hole but for some reason the game doesn't simulate Specification.

9.80 m/s^2 on earth to be more exact

ah stiler spaceshipe en orbite

Notification squad etc.

What would happen to the earth if it passed nearby the sun for 3 seconds?

12:39 he said star not black hole

You should of done the Avalon ship from passengers

Hi

Wow

Is Space Engine super demanding on the PC?

Am I the only one having a panic attack

Kinda pointless, as SpaceEngine does not limit speed to c, and does not apply relativistic effects to objects (except red shift by distance, and black hole image deformation).

can i get space engine?

This video makes me feel uncomfortable at a very deep level. Nothing should be that close to... nothing.

Go into a black hole with a ship and try to get out that would be interesting.

I love how comments are cancer on this channel

Anyone watching this in a k hole

first

you spent the entirety of the life of the universe in the black hole
