So I couldn't help but notice when you go through the O4 relay to fight the collectors the black hole is letting light escape, in all actuality this is scientifically impossible.

Also, not one object moves. Shouldn't they be sucked in by the black hole.

Its a white hole. Its what black holes connect to. [/joke][/sarcasm][/badscience]

Actually, the light is brightest at the edge of the black hole before it crosses into the point of no return.



The light you are seeing hasn't made it into the black hole yet, but is swirling faster and faster towards its death, brightening as it speeds up.

That's light/energy being bent around the black hole. The black hole itself is not emitting light.

Maybe that is not a black hole!? No matter what they say in some ingame conversations, a station can't survive near a black hole. It is not about gravity, but space alteration why even light emissions are captured. And I doubt that Biowares writers don't know why black holes are called "black" holes!

OMG. There is a scientific inaccuracy in a video game? Noooooo.....

You've spotted only one?

Might just be heated and/or luminescent gas and/or debris between our vantage point and the singularity itself. Just a thought.

It might not even be a black hole. It might be a Neutron Star.

In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy's skeleton like a

xylophone, he strikes the same rib twice in succession, yet he

produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to

believe, that this is some sort of a

magic xylophone or something? Boy, I really hope somebody got

fired for that blunder.

Where's that one dude freaking out about how people shouldn't want to keep calling Pluto a planet because it'll hurt the children at when you need him? He could totally explain the heated gas swirling at break-neck speeds generating heat and light to OP.

Two words: "Sci-fi".



Now really, it bothers you that the black hole was portrayed totally incorrectly, but it doesn't bother you that your ship can accelerate to FTL speed.

Right...

If it is a black hole (which it could be, because seeing as space time is altered within the black holes' event horizon, light cannot escape, so it would be impossible to tell if anything is happening.) My guess is it is supposed to be a black hole, and you are just outside of it's event horizon. A mass effect field emanating from the collector base is preventing it from drifting within the event horizon.

As for how it looks?

Looks pretty good to me. *shrugs*

this, material becomes superheated the closer it gets to the event horizon.  this is partially how we've found black holes in the first place, that and the gamma bursts they emit.  and it is def not a neutron star, those are gennerally the size of a large terrestrial planets.

i love space Image IPB

edit here is a link to a nasa site explaining black hole along with an actual pic of one

Of all the scientific inaccuracies packed into this game and science fiction as a whole, you zeroed in on something that is actually scientifically correct. Congratulations, sir. That is not an easy feat.

Meh, it's a video game scinece is allowed to be stomped on. Besides that's not worst innacuracy, Miranda states that the center of galaxy is made up of a lot of black holes. Not true, there is only one, there is a black hole at the center of every galaxy. It's how galaxies are made in the first place.

Don't get all carried away thinking that black hole theory is absolute. THe beauty of science is that there are no answers, only more and more questions. If you want to read some trippy ****, look up the Einstein-Maxwell equations. Physics r00lz!



Also, how can you get all bent out of shape about a pretty background when you traveled to the spot to look at it doing a speed many times the speed of light?





So repeat after me "Oooh pretty".



That's all you need to do.

Oh lawd. Quit conceding the point. The OP is flat out wrong.

Also, yes there is a super-massive black hole at the center of the galaxy, but that does not preclude the core from being littered with smaller black holes. The density of material in that region leads to larger stars forming, living for shorter periods of time, and collapsing into black holes. They are too far away to fall into the Supermassive black hole.

Also, black holes do not suck. That new Star Trek movie needs to die for perpetuating that myth.
