Event horizon

That's in the way, is it not?

Well, no, it's not directly in front of the Event Horizon.

But then, like, is there, like, a minimum distance?

Well, like, the vortex comes out a certain distance, but, like, it also destroys anything in its path.

We're at the GeekyWaffle.com. And we're on Patreon, patreon.com slash Geeky Waffle.

Thanks for joining us today.

And we'll see you on the other side of the event horizon.

Right.

Quantum mechanics treats reality as chunky, probabilistic, and uncertain, but an event horizon forces them to interact.

And what this realization shows us is that event horizons are not perfect, absolute classical barriers.

They're porous.

Yes.

Uh, I have those little glasses.

Number three, what is the name of the boundary surrounding a black hole beyond which nothing can escape? Event Horizon.

Event Horizon.

Scary movie as well.

Number four, speaking of scary, AHS is American Horror Story, 13th season, September 2026, American Horror Story.

Singularity is that infinite point once you get sucked in that you're constantly being sucked towards, maybe?

We don't know what happens inside the event horizon because obviously we can't get any data out.

Maybe it's a meaningless question.

We don't know about the afterlife.

Maybe it's a question we can't access, you know?

Well, you know, there was an interesting article, I think, in a really wonderful astronomy writer, Ethan Siegel on Big Think, about black holes.

And he was saying how it's interesting that if our whole universe was inside a black hole, basically, the event horizon of all the mass...

in our universe is the size of our universe and that's like a trippy thing to think about so you know there's like these really theoretical concepts of bubble universes and and universes existing within black holes and whatnot but it is strange that the event horizon which is kind of that

This week we're introducing a new segment.

It's called Event Horizon.

That's the first one we're going to be talking about.

And in it, we are talking about what's coming up in Boulder that you might want to know about.

So hopefully it's a segment that you find entertaining.

And even if you don't find it entertaining, we very much would welcome your feedback as the podcast continues to evolve and grow.

It's not astrophysics, this event horizon or quantum physics.

Well, that's where the term comes from, right? That is what an event horizon is.
