Can one theoretically increase the spin of a black hole by adding mass at the right angle? IE: give it more and more angular momentum until you achieve the naked singularity?
Perhaps that is the final experiment of Kardashev level whatever civilization.
- zaarn 4y agoYou absolutely could keep adding momenting in just the right way. Though I will add, as spin goes up, so does frame dragging, which makes it actually difficult to hit a black hole as space begins spinning with it.
- mabbo 4y agoIt makes for a very nice sci-fi story setting though. A very far flung future in which some very post-humans are attempting to break the universe in this way.
