Hey, its not like an analog of "Yeah, lets just throw some more mass at the newly-forming black hole in our neighbourhood", said every human that has ever thrown things into the fire, forever ..

- MomsAVoxell 1y agoYes, you really do.
- api 1y agoBlack holes aren't cosmic vacuum cleaners. They're just super super super compact objects. I've actually posted this a few times: If you suddenly transformed the Moon into a black hole of the same mass, it would continue to orbit the Earth in the same spot. It wouldn't suck up the Earth or anything. The ocean tides would continue as normal under the influence of the black-hole-moon's gravity, which would be the same if it was orbiting at the same distance. You wouldn't see a moon in the sky, but if you focused a good telescope on where it was you'd see gravitational lensing. It would be a little smaller than a BB.
