Why Black Holes Are Not Objects — Penrose Explains

Описание: Black holes are usually described as objects — incredibly dense things hiding inside space.
Roger Penrose argues that this picture is deeply misleading.

In this video, we explore a more unsettling idea: a black hole is not something in spacetime. It is a region where spacetime itself stops behaving in a familiar way. Concepts like “inside,” “center,” and even “before” and “after” lose their ordinary meaning.

Using Penrose’s perspective, we look at why singularities are not physical locations, why black holes are defined by global geometry rather than local substance, and why black holes force us to rethink what it means for something to exist at all.

Once you see black holes this way, they stop looking like cosmic vacuum cleaners — and start looking like cracks in the structure of reality itself.
