What Is The Singularity In A Black Hole?

what is the singularity in a black hole

Why is it that when you push two pieces of wood together, they don’t smush together and become one smaller piece of wood? Because the atoms that make up the pieces of wood push against each other, repel each other. They want to own their own little bit of space. They resist being smushed.

But they can only push back so hard. With enough force, you *can* smush atoms together, breaking them down into smaller things. Those smaller things also don’t want to be smushed together, but with enough force, they will too. Everything will, with enough force.

“Lady”, an electric guitar built illegally by an inmate in a Pennsylvania State prison

This guitar came to life inside the 126-year-old jail that is so massive, it’s known locally as “The Wall.” Junior Ben had a broken guitar neck to start with. The heavy body was hand-carved from Pennsylvanian walnut and oak with white-painted binding. The hand-stamped brass truss rod cover has the word, “LADY,” a tribute to B.B. King’s “Lucille.”

All the wiring was smuggled in from the prison shops or pulled out of headphone jacks. All the knobs are spaced very closely together, a necessary step in order to keep wiring to a minimum.

What’s It Like To Have To Put Your Dog Down

The single hardest thing I have done in my life at the age of 31 was put down my dog, Angel, who had heart disease. I remember getting the call from my mom while I was at work and using the drive over the to vet to get all my crying out. This was my pup growing up and was the sweetest dog I’ve ever owned. Not a mean bone in her body and would absolutely light up the moment she saw me. Every time.

I remember pulling up to the vet and thinking I had everything under control but the moment I went into the room where she was laying on the table I lost it. Here is my pup breathing what seemed like slow determined breaths, dealing with pain in a foreign room without family around. My Mom walks in first and Angel immediately recognizes her and you can sense the relief.

Picture of the Day

During the four years of the Civil War, Ft. Stevens was the closest the confederates got to Washington. During the siege on the US Capitol building, supporters of Donald Trump paraded the confederate battle flag through the Capitol.

The portrait on the wall is of 19th century Vermont Senator Justin Morrill, one of the founders of the Republican Party. After the Civil War, he served on the Joint Committee on Reconstruction, requiring southern states to ratify the 14th Amendment before they’d be readmitted into the United States.
