Quick question. I know that black holes will all eventually die. But, what if, you build those giant mirrors around the black hole and start bouncing gamma rays around. Could you keep on feeding the black hole in such a way that you perfectly counter-act the affects of Hawking Radiation, causing the black hole to last forever, or as long as you keep on feeding it and getting back your energy?
@@almondpotato9483 I think it would stop the loss of mass for a while (trillions of years), but eventually slowing down the black hole's angular momentum, thus the energy supply for the black hole dissappears and the black hole will lose mass like nothing happened.
I just thought of some horrifying ways of making weapons out of black holes... Want to sterilize a perfect swath of planets of life perhaps to collect resources? Instead of detonating your mirror let it build to close to detonation then direct all the energy output into a single direction, ideally with minimal spread.... There is now a wave of death equivalent to a tactical quasar going wherever you want... Also you could use this combined with concentrating mirrors on the other end to create a kuggelblitz (probably... I dunno) and feed it a few asteroids to prevent it from immediately decaying... Then send it on to a star of choice, now you have a new spinning black hole to work this... While you're at it, if you're feeling mean, rather than just sterilizing a planet with light, generate the kuggelblitz on the surface and remove all traces of the planet. Finally for a more conventional attack, instead of shooting light, shoot a giant asteroid at the planet which thanks to your spinning black hole is now going a significant fraction of the speed of light and will completely end life on the planet but this time they may be able to have warning but not be able to stop it
This video was so much fun and a huge challenge to make. About a year ago we stumbled over this paper: arxiv.org/abs/hep-th/0404096 It took us months and about one thousand hours to work through it and to make it into this video. Hope you like the result.
I love humanity. We look at a black hole: an infinitely dense point that consumes everything that comes near it forever, we have no idea what happens and it's basically the scariest thing in the universe. We look at that and think "Yeah, we could get energy from that."
@emmanuelmaxxHello my good Sir, would you like to trade your future for some beads? Or these lovely blankets that are definitely not infested with a plague?
describing a handgranade but the outer shell made of tissue paper. fizzzzz.. over.. no bang. same goes for your mirror around the black hole. also good luck trying to get a mirror around a black hole. everyone fears the event horizon because you cant get out of that anymore.. no the event horizon is the point even light doesnt escape.. but for humans or robots in spaceships the point of no escape is way way furtehr off than then event horizon. so stating a black hole is smaller then a star so the mirror is smaller then a dysonsphere is fantasy.
if getting the mirrors around the black hole is somehow possible (highly unlikely) then thats probably the first thing humans will do tbh, at least politicians
Been watching this channel since the start and have always been horrified my the fact that all stars will eventually die and matter in the universe will be soo dispersed that only black holes are left. This is the most comforting episode yet. To know we have came up with an idea to survive and thrive the trillions of years that is the true twilight of our universe. Bravo!!
Are you implying that description is ironic because it's complicated? It really isn't though. Building the mirror would be the hard part. Using it after it's built is easy.
When you think of it, black holes will survive for so long after everything else is dead that the civilisations might spend most of their existence around black holes.
@@arandomguy656 my god what if we evolve to not require light to see our surroundings because of the lack of stars, therefore making it pitch black to any visitors from the past.
abloogywoogywoo I wonder why? Is something incorrect? Is it the way they present the facts? Well, it's meant to be simple, they are still called "Kurzgesagt-In a nutshell" not "Langegesagt-In detail".
@ljr2000, because its all fantasy. You have more chance of building a "world engine"... a propulsion system that can move the very Earth, situated in the core of our planet... than building a Dyson Sphere around a Black Hole. It can't be done. Even if you could magic up the resources, the nearest singularity is thousands of light years away from us, we can't get there.
i love how a random scientist said ''hey, a singularity cannot spin, so i made this ring that has no surface for a replacement of the singularity in spinning black holes, how should i name it, hmm... aha! a RINGularity!''
This is the best example of dumbness. MFs hardly have an image of a black hole, they are already planing to get power from it. On top of that planing to live around it
The funny thing is in the German video it’s not called “Ringularität”, which is translated and means Ringularity, it’s called “Ringsingularität“, which is translated and means ring singularity 😅
🤔 So given that, that means the singularity is 1) not the true center of the black hole and 2) is a thing that either moves in a circle or its shape is distorted by the black hole's spin. What's that singularity made of? Squashed information or particles maybe? Squashed light?

Joe was a great hero. He helped us assemble the mirror used to construct a perpetually infinite source of electromagnetic waves generated by black holes so that we would not freeze to death after the last white dwarf star had cooled off. Without him, we would’nt have been able to survive the cold temperatures of the coming eternal darkness. Rest in peace happily, we hope to see you happy in heaven, Joe.
We should form paramilitary units like oekoterrorists to defend our pepeetum mobiles and infinity systems against power companies and people who mean the earth is a disk.
@@healthya7975 I have a dream, expanding unity energy universes with pepeetum mobiles systems, in greater and tinier expanding unity energy universes and so on. Where whitedwarf, blackdwarfs, blackholes and iron magnetic pepeetum mobiles, structural universe architecturing etc. creates a "heath death" free infinity multiverse for us all.
For anyone that's curious, the radius of a black hole is linearly proportional to the mass of the black hole, with M = R * (10^26)~ The mass of the sun is about 10^30 10^30 = R * 10^26 10^4 = R 10,000 = R The radius of a black hole with the mass of the sun is approximately 10 kilometers, which is incredibly tiny compared to the radius of the current sun
It just releases as much energy as a supernova. At least, that's what I understood from it, since a supernova involves ejecting a lot of a star's mass, but no mass can escape a black hole, and the stuff that we shoot into the ergosphere will only be waves and stuff.
Why doesn't this channel have 10 million subs! It is literally one of the few channels on youtube that is keeping the creativity alive on this platform!

The final stage is always black hole, because eventually every matter in the universe will fall into one or become one through quantum effects and then evaporate into radiation over an immeasurably long time.
@@Szgerle immeasurable but not incalculable..it's around 10^67 for Stellar mass blackholes and 10^107 for super massive blackholes I guess..I might be slightly off sorry for that😅
@@rhisavbora2975 What are you even talking about? I said all matter in the universe even in the case protons don't decay will eventually turn into radiation by cold fusion into iron over 10^1500 years and then collapsing into black holes via macroscale quantum events over 10^10^26 years. On these timeframes, black holes evaporate instantly.
@@Szgerle oh i am sorry..I was thinking about hawking radiation..and Only standard model of particle physics predicts protons don't decay..And Standard model is not perfect..I was not talking about quantum tunneling ..If protons do decay everything will be over far before that..If not than u r absolutely correct..
Wouldn’t the “bomb” imply that the mirror was made out of an imaginary, nearly invincible material that reflects 100% of the energy that touches it and wouldn’t just melt or break in a less climactic way? Like what the heck would be strong enough to resist the steady buildup to supernova-level energy without failing long before that level was reached?
Because we can't make a material that reflects 100% of light. Even absorbing 0.00000000000001% of the light means the mirror will heat up and melt/explode when the EM waves in the cavity are too intense.
@@viniciusdomenighi6439 the battery was first invented in 2200BC, but the technology didn't spread probably because they did not understand what they were dealing with. People are probably coming across amazing phenomena everyday, but dismissing them instead of studying them to gain new scientific insights.
The weird thing is that just now scientists have now encountered the first ever black hole that is actually spitting matter back out. It devoured a sun and is now spitting it back out at about half the speed of light which is very interesting and puzzling.
The sun won't last forever, and certainly no sun will last forever so when our sun dies and all the other Suns die within our reach 8 billion years from now, theoretically we can still survive
I mean, it's the better deal until the mirror shatters and we all die a horrible death consumed by the biggest explosion possible that will probably also consume the rest of the universe.
Despite your immense physical limitations, you nonetheless persisted on, and commited your life to giving humanity a better understanding of our Universe. One of the great minds of our age. Your scientific contributions will not be forgotten. Rest in Peace, Stephen Hawking 1942-2018
Some Crew you should remember him Everytime you bring up blackholes topic!, he discovered the Hawking radiation, that comes out of blackholes carrying little mass of the blackhole it's an interesting thing you should read about it,
That shouldn't take away from the fact that his scientific achievements shed light on a lot of complex concepts. Stop giving a rat's ass when he died as start pressing "F" boy
If black holes spin, then the size of the core of the black hole can be calculated based on it's rotational speed if the rotational speed of it's star was known Therefore the singularity of a black hole cannot be infinitely small or have zero surface area, most likely the core would be a disc of matter rather than a ring
well, we cant really know. and as other studies concluded, the circunstances behind a blackhole are so extreme it create mathematical absurdities and pretty much ignore all laws of physics we have defined. if theres something with an infinite and a true zero in this universe it might be related to these things.
@@andersbeth6786 its not smallest possible length, its just smallest possible length of a being we can see in any way, there are known things smaller than that
At midnight, you're just chanting to yourself "black hole bomb" in Russian whilst drawing pentagrams and strange symbols all over the room with red chalk.
@@miritallstag336 no I think it's mostly time; if you were to go into the ergosphere, time would slow way down for you, take Interstellar: 1 hour on Miller's planet equals 7 years on earth, meaning if 2 alien species were to emerge at the same time, but one of the planets gravity is stronger, the other one would be able to progress faster and win if they fight. Maybe if we pass the time filter, the supernova bombs would be the next filter
@@Reaping_Matster sorry to get your hopes down but planets gravity isnt that variable enough to create such large scale time dilation. the difference of time is very small, even between two bodies containing largely differing amounts of gravitational force. very fun idea tho
What I find interesting is that we are 1/1100 of the way to creating a miniscule black hole power wise without trying and have only discovered electricity for a couple hundred years. Imagine what a advanced civilization could do.

Why would someone make a bomb out of it? I mean there is absolutely no application for such an enormous explosion. This is the kind of thing to destroy whole solar systems and more... Unless we fight some alien-wars, there is no reason for anyone to use it that way...
@@Terminus-bb7uv Who knows what sort of energy, matter, etc will come out or even become the result of an exploded black hole. It would be more of a curiosity thing really.

Off topic here, but if you think about, gravity is an infinite source of energy, if only newton's law of thermodynamics didnt exist and friction too
For anyone that's curious, the radius of a black hole is linearly proportional to the mass of the black hole, with M = R * (10^26)~
The mass of the sun is about 10^30
10^30 = R * 10^26
10^4 = R
10,000 = R
The radius of a black hole with the mass of the sun is approximately 10 kilometers, which is incredibly tiny compared to the radius of the current sun

I love how you can turn a super nova, which becomes a black hole, and then make it a supernova again
It just releases as much energy as a supernova.
At least, that's what I understood from it, since a supernova involves ejecting a lot of a star's mass, but no mass can escape a black hole, and the stuff that we shoot into the ergosphere will only be waves and stuff.

I said all matter in the universe even in the case protons don't decay will eventually turn into radiation by cold fusion into iron over 10^1500 years and then collapsing into black holes via macroscale quantum events over 10^10^26 years. On these timeframes, black holes evaporate instantly.
@@Szgerle oh i am sorry..I was thinking about hawking radiation..and Only standard model of particle physics predicts protons don't decay..And Standard model is not perfect..I was not talking about quantum tunneling ..If protons do decay everything will be over far before that..If not than u r absolutely correct..

Ah yes, the negotiator
Wouldn’t the “bomb” imply that the mirror was made out of an imaginary, nearly invincible material that reflects 100% of the energy that touches it and wouldn’t just melt or break in a less climactic way? Like what the heck would be strong enough to resist the steady buildup to supernova-level energy without failing long before that level was reached?
Because we can't make a material that reflects 100% of light. Even absorbing 0.00000000000001% of the light means the mirror will heat up and melt/explode when the EM waves in the cavity are too intense.
@@bigsmall246 actually we can collect the energy with the same speed it multiply, so there is no problem here.
@@user-iq7mk3gb9w the energy collection happens at the aperture where the light escapes the sphere, not at the mirrors in the form of heat.

correction 11942 - 12018
If black holes spin, then the size of the core of the black hole can be calculated based on it's rotational speed if the rotational speed of it's star was known
Therefore the singularity of a black hole cannot be infinitely small or have zero surface area, most likely the core would be a disc of matter rather than a ring
well, we cant really know. and as other studies concluded, the circunstances behind a blackhole are so extreme it create mathematical absurdities and pretty much ignore all laws of physics we have defined. if theres something with an infinite and a true zero in this universe it might be related to these things.
Its also likely that the singularity is the size of a planck length (the smallest possible length)
I like to think of it like a game, if you input enough zeros something breaks and impossible things happen
@@andersbeth6786 its not smallest possible length, its just smallest possible length of a being we can see in any way, there are known things smaller than that
