Unrealistic Black Hole	comment	Black holes. They're the most terrifying things in the known universe. They're huge masses of... well, nothing (but they do have a lot of mass); and nothing, not even light, can travel fast enough to escape them. note A black hole is any object which has an escape velocity that is greater than the speed of light. The event horizon (or Schwarzschild radius) is the boundary within which this condition is met. Unfortunate items which do fall in are spaghettified (the official scientific term), stretched thin by tidal forces, the black hole ripping individual molecules apart. But that's only if you get too close. From far away enough, in a stable orbit, being near a black hole would just be the same as orbiting a massive, invisible note The gravitational lensing effect is hard to overlook so the black hole would appear as a silhouette against the stars â€” see the Other Wiki for a simulation thereof. And then Hawking's radiation would actually make the thing pretty bright. star, only the black hole would be much smaller. note For a nice size comparison, see this video; a black hole with Earth's mass would be about the size of a coin. For example, if the sun were to suddenly be magically converted into a black hole of the same mass, Earth's orbit would continue on exactly as before, completely unaffected (gravitationally, that is â€” the lack of heat and light would, of course, rapidly end almost all life). Even orbiting a black hole wouldn't be a safe place for organic lifeforms, as you would be constantly pelted with orbiting dust and debris flying at ludicrous speeds, all while simultaneously being cooked alive and having your DNA melted by the incredible temperatures and intense emissions of radiation, including X-rays and Gamma rays. Needless to say, black holes are pretty scary things. Scary, yet deeply fascinating and mystifying things, as well as objects for which there's many discoveries still to be made, and much research yet to be conducted. At least they have a rather well defined list of things they can and can't do. ... Unless it's fiction. Sometimes they just suck in everything around them like giant space-vacuum-cleaners, seeing as Gravity Sucks. This can range from whole planets to just the Big Bad of the story (and in those cases, the black hole conveniently closes after swallowing him). Also commonly, a black hole will be represented as an actual hole in space and it will be perfectly possible to enter a black hole and leave it safely. Sometimes a black hole will be completely flat, apparently forgetting that our universe is 3D. Relativistic time dilation tends to be ignored; a character voyaging into a black hole can leave it without time warping, while those outside can see things enter a black hole without slowing to a crawl.note To an external observer, anyone or anything entering the event horizon would cease moving, then slowly fade away, as the last of the light reflecting off them is then red-shifted to invisibility over a long period of time. Hovering black holes are often seen as weapons. Also, if a black hole forms during the story, expect its gravitational pull to instantly skyrocket instead of remaining the same as the pull of the star that collapsed to form it. Of course it will be completely insane for anything to be orbiting it, despite the fact that we are orbiting a black hole right now. A subtrope of Space Is Magic â€” indeed, if the canon in question has magic then that's your Hand Wave for getting away with this trope. For two similar, more terrestrial examples, see Do Not Touch the Funnel Cloud and Quicksand Sucks; in the case of the latter, it too is often depicted as actively suctioning things into itself, when in reality the pulling power of both black holes and quicksand works around the force of gravity instead. When the black hole is used as a method of travel, see Our Wormholes Are Different. Very commonly used as a Negative Space Wedgie. Often involved in a Spaceship Slingshot Stunt. Note that for decades, the exact appearance of a black hole was solely a theoretical and artistic undertaking, constantly changing and shifting in line with the emergence of new scientific theories and shifting schools of thought. On April 10, 2019, the first ever image of a black hole was released to the public. It was undertaken by the Event Horizon Telescope and a globally collaborative scientific undertaking by multiple universities across the world. This was followed up by the May 12, 2022 release of a photograph of Sagittarius A* in the Galactic Center of the Milky Way galaxy, showing that it too contains a black hole.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_1622155	comment	Marx, the final boss of Kirby Super Star, has an attack where he splits in half and creates a black hole that tries to suck you in. If you get caught in it the black hole will deal considerable damage and then spit you out. This attack would become something of a trend in the series as several later Kirby final bosses use their own variations on it. Marx also uses this attack in his appearance as a boss in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. You can even use it yourself when playing as Marx in Kirby Star Allies. The fellow final boss Magolor also uses his own version in his playable moveset. It's ridiculously powerful on both characters.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_1bdeba5a	comment	X-Men: Xorn was very bad about this. Supposedly his head was a black hole, and the only thing keeping it in place was a strange metal helmet. The prospect of taking off his helmet was considered incredibly dangerous, never mind the fact that it would only be dangerous to anything very close to his head. It's even worse in the Ultimate universe where he (or Zorn, it's hard to keep them apart) simply explodes into a disproportionately large black hole that magically begins to suck up everything within a few dozen miles. It gets even worse when his brother supposedly turns into the opposite of a black hole: a star* A black hole is the fate of any large star. The true opposite of a black hole would be a white hole, which would, theoretically, push away all mass.. In the case of Ultimate Marvel, Xorn represents illumination which is the opposite of a black hole's devouring of light. It represents their conflicting philosophies and not stars and black holes themselves. The visual representation of Zorn's black hole can also be attributed to the artist. The writer who originally defined Xorn's powers did so in the context that they were entirely made up by Magneto, who was subsequently disappointed that the X-Men hadn't realised it was total nonsense.

Eventually, the hole sucks in the whole town, except for Maggie, who throws her pacifier at it.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_2797f1b0	comment	The Geometry Wars games feature Gravity Wells, a semi-sentient enemy that drifts benignly towards you, doing absolutely nothing. If attacked, it burns brightly, and starts drawing in everything nearby (to add to their mass), sometimes allowing them to orbit it. The gravity increases with the size of the Well. The only way to end the Wells is to shoot them to chip their mass away. And the gravity multiplies if multiple Gravity Wells are allowed to try to engulf each other (they just dance around each other), to the point your craft cannot escape the pull. Oddly, Gravity Wells will split and repel your firepower, meaning you have to draw close, shoot, and use the gravity to slingshot yourself to safety.

The big bad uses one to suck in planets and store his army and sustains it with gravity generators located on captured planets INSIDE the black hole and his interstellar warship (also inside the black hole). Then there's Bulzeeb. He attacks with black hole bombs which are, as you may have guessed, bombs that create a large (compared to most explosions in the game) black hole upon detonation. The black hole only compresses anything in its blast radius that's not the ground. And apparently Bulzeeb's armor is black hole proof since he can enter the black hole without being compressed or harmed. To give the game credit, at least they show death by compression into a singularity when it does hit you.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_354d43de	comment	One of the Red Dwarf novels had an arc in which the crew encountered a black hole. Whether it's handled realistically or not is... really up to you: Its effect on time is addressed by the narrator (as well as causing numerous problems for ship computer Holly, what with his components being in different weeks), and the Talkie Toaster (really) describes the process of spaghettification. However, they then proceed to use the event horizon to slingshot out of the black hole. And find out quite quickly from Lister, who was left on a nearby planet, that the entire maneuver took decades. Being spaghettified isn't really presented correctly though; the point is the gravity stretches and compresses everything into one long thin "noodle", but in the book it's more like becoming multiple strands of spaghetti. And the crew remain conscious the whole time and are conveniently "de-spaghettified" once they've completed the slingshot, rather than being extremely dead.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_3cd31075	comment	Hilariously enough, the original series, GunBuster, was actually a lot better with this than most modern depictions: when the aforementioned black hole is spontaneously created in the midst of an enemy fleet, the animation depicting it is fairly accurate: the accretion disc is the only visible part of the thing, which otherwise looks like a giant spherical void, complete with particle discharges from the poles. And the gravitational effects of having a black hole only a few hundred AU's from Earth are touched upon. There's still the idea that an overloaded spaceship engine could create a black hole in the first place, but this series also has Inazuma Kicks, so...

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_3defe34c	comment	Discussed in a Bones episode involving a murdered physicist who had worked on the Large Hadron Collider. Early in the episode the show references the mini-controversy over the LHC possibly producing black holes as a potential motive for the murder (the idea being that the victim was killed to prevent The End of the World as We Know It). First of all the story that originated this "controversy" was satirical to begin with, and second of all, the entire idea is physically impossible for multiple reasons.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_3fe6b4fb	comment	In the New Jedi Order series, the Yuuzhan Vong ships actually created tiny black holes as shields (they exist just long enough to absorb incoming ordnance, then collapse). Even assuming you could do that, when you collapsed the singularity the destroyed ordnance would burst out as pure energy (which would be an enormously bigger explosion than whatever the weapon could have caused normally). The same creature/components that do this also propel the ships.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_50e2e357	comment	Star Trek (2009). Not only do characters travel through a black hole to another universe and another time, they escape its pull after they cross the event horizon (though they do have faster-than-light technology). It's really inconsistent, and makes you wonder why they researched all the science if they were going to ignore details at random. It's not as if Star Trek doesn't have plenty of swirly spacetime anomalies to pick and choose from anyway, so going with the relatively well-understood phenomenon of a black hole and systematically getting every detail about them wrong at various points was a little jarring. The black holes are also 2D, or very flat, and each surrounded by scary lightning, regardless of whether it's turning into a wormhole in that scene. Worse still, the planet Vulcan is consumed by a black holeâ€¦ in minutes, not the near hour it would take at a minimum; completely, rather than forming an accretion disc; and without flooding the vicinity with enough X rays to vaporize every starship around, shields or no shields. It was made with Red Matter (and very small amounts of it too, for that matter), made by Vulcans for the purpose of creating a black hole to counteract a supernova. Forget about Accretion Disks, Event Horizons and General Relativity... things work differently when you have an intelligent alien race manufacturing black holes for their own purposes (then again, Romulans have been doing exactly that for decades, using tiny black holes to power their ships).

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_69fa7496	comment	One memorable Italian Disney story, which was pretty crazy even by comic book standards, had Scrooge attempt to solve the waste management crisis by dumping garbage into a black hole. He has all the world's garbage accumulated in a single landfill, to be loaded into a massive rocket... but the combined weight destabilizes the Earth's orbit and sends the planet spiraling into interstellar depths and straight for the black hole. The garbage rocket (which is powered by gold for some reason - you could say they achieved gold fusion) is chained to the earth and launched as a counter-pull against gravity. The rocket pulls the planet when it's just fallen halfway into the black hole, but all it can do is keep it from falling further in. Does it not have enough power to counter a measly black hole? Oh, that's not the reason. It gets weirder. Scrooge and nephews explore the other side of the hole, and find that it's a parallel universe where the alternate Scrooge also attempted the garbage rocket plan, also ended up falling into the same black hole, and the alternate Earthlings are now also pulling from the other side with their own rocket with the exact same force. The situation is eventually solved when Scrooge and his alternate counterpart sacrifice the very last of their gold, which gives the two rockets enough power to pull both planets out, intact, simultaneously.

Anything that touches one is sucked in and destroyed completely, and if it was alive is rendered Deader than Dead. However, they only suck in solid things that touch them, leaving the air around them undisturbed. They also remain completely motionless floating in the air until somebody tries to move one, which can be done just by thinking about moving it, though it will always move towards anyone who tries to move it and fails. The Spelljammer setting implies they are corpses of stellar dragons. The giant living spaceship, the Spelljammer, generates larger versions of the sphere as a weapon against other ships. There are also some Spheres of Annihilation that are alive. The Blackball or Umbral Blot is a living Sphere of Annihilation that has the ability to turn off its property of not affecting the air around it in order to vacuum enemies into itself. The Elder Evil Pandorym, a monster powerful enough to kill all of the gods and destroy the world, has a body that acts like a larger than normal Sphere of Annihilation.

And it evaporates after a few seconds. That's actually fairly realistic, if you're willing to fudge the masses and timescales by several orders of magnitude. Although it really should evaporate in a very loud BANG, to be strictly accurate. And in the sequel, spawning a black hole causes it to suck up any nearby objects for a few seconds. When the few seconds are up, it expands and consumes the entire stage, protagonist included. And it cannot be removed once spawned.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_70814599	comment	Stargate SG-1: The show both uses and partially averts this trope on a couple of occasions. In "A Matter of Time", the Stargate connects to a planet falling into a black hole; the fact that time slows down near a black hole is used both as a plot point and for dramatic effect. The heroes must watch an unfortunate SG team on the doomed planet try to reach the gate â€“ they keep running, but can never reach safety, as time slows to a crawl for them, and the 38 minutes the gate can stay open passes in only a few seconds from Stargate Command's perspective, barely long enough to get their badly redshifted authentication signal through. Carter also briefly nods toward real-life physics in that the time dilation effect is affecting a wider area than the black hole's gravity is, which is completely nonsensical (the time dilation and increased gravity are the same thing, you can't have one without the other), and she basically shrugs and admits "I have no idea how that's happening". The real problem arises from the fact it's a newborn black hole that originated from one of the planet's binary suns. Gravity is a function of mass and distance between centers of mass. When a star collapses into a black hole the mass does not change, only the density, and neither does the distance between any orbiting planets and the star/black hole's center of mass. Therefor gravity at the planet's orbit would not change one iota, the planet would continue orbiting as normal and not "fall in", and there would be no time dilation. Gravity only "increases" once you get within the radius the star's surface used to encompass. Radiation would have been a MUCH more real problem. In "New Order", the evil Replicators use a black hole's distortion of time and some Applied Phlebotinum to escape from its accretion disk (at least it was made clear they weren't trapped in the black hole itself!). As with everything in Stargate, moderately plausible science is liberally mixed with Rule of Cool, and black holes get to interact with Stargates (and nuclear weapons) in lots of interesting ways. In "The Pegasus Project", the team combines a Stargate, Explodium, Technobabble, and a black hole to dial the Supergate and keep the Ori out of the Milky Way. Points for McKay telling Mitchell that it's not the black hole he's looking at, it's the accretion disk. Not that Mitchell cares. Conversed in "200" after a particularly ludicrous use of this trope in the script for the Wormhole X-Treme! movie. To be fair, a black hole at the end of its life cycle can evaporate exponentially faster due to Hawking radiation, dissipating in a manner that might charitably be called "explosive".

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_755c9804	comment	The power of the main villain in LEGO's Hero Factory is creating black holes, using a staff. As if the writer was aiming to play this trope straight as best as she could, they are actual holes you can jump into, and... cling onto their inner "walls". Even though the wall was intangible and characters simply floated through them in the previous scene. Their sucking power is so immense, they pull the weapons out of the Heroes' hands, but inside, you can freely jump around from wall to wall without falling deeper into it. Another interesting thing is that if you jump upwards into it, you end up on its wall, but if you climb out of it upwards, you will fall out downwards through its "bottom". How can these black holes be neutralized? By throwing anti-gravity flying devices into them.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_79234d7b	comment	Halfway through Lost in Space (2018) it's revealed that the planet they're stranded on is in a binary system and the 2nd star is a black hole. This acts as a looming threat for why they have to get off the planet immediately, because said black hole is "sucking" the planet out of orbit and tearing it apart in the process - so quickly that they have only days or weeks before the planet is uninhabitable. The only POSSIBLE way this would work is if it were a stray black hole flying through the system, not a binary system as they clearly stated, and even then it's happening WAY too fast. Any planet orbiting a star that collapses into a black hole will continue to orbit at its same distance because gravity doesn't change when a black hole forms. To make matters worse, their first hint it existed was that the "day was getting longer, too fast". A changing orbit would in no way change the day length, only rotational velocity or axial tilt, and they had no point of reference for how quickly seasons changed day length on this planet so had no basis to make such a claim.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_7988cb68	comment	In the Mass Effect series, the Blackstorm Projector is colloquially called the "black-hole gun" (and the nickname was Played for Laughs in the Gamestop advert for it), but it in fact fires a particle encased in a high-powered mass effect field, which elevates it to colossal mass, thus creating a gravitational singularity. Also, the Singularity biotic power does not actually suck in enemies, but causes them to levitate and slowly orbit the object. It has no effect on anything else and can safely be thrown at one's own feet. In Mass Effect: Andromeda, the Heleus Cluster that the game takes place in has a black hole (named "Ketos", at least by the humans) at its gravitational center. In terms of appearance and behavior, it's very accurate... except for the fact that the Codex gives Ketos a mass of 12 Solar masses, while the black hole shown in-game on the galaxy map and cutscenes looks far too enormous for such a "low" mass; it looks as big across as an intermediate- or even supermassive-type black hole.

Apparently, anything that enters it from any time period appears to exist there simultaneously, allowing the ships to meet (Kirk orders the all sensors to turn to their lowest resolution in order to avoid gleaning any hints of future technology, as per the Temporal Prime Directive). Kirk's Enterprise passes Zefram Cochrane's shuttle to Picard's ship, and both ships exit at their respective "time zones".

It turns out that his weapon was Galactus; he had somehow amplified his hunger for planets to the point where Galactus converted himself into a giant black hole which would, in time, suck up all matter in the universe, from all points of time, leading to a Class X-4 Apocalypse How, possibly bordering on Class Z. As this alternate future was encased in a time bubble, Galactus was able to eliminate this time line from happening by deploying the Ultimate Nullifier.

There are only two realistic things to them: they suck and they red-shift. Bowser's plans go bust, one of his stars collapses and turns into a black hole, universe gets sucked in? Disregarding the fact that it's actually possible to fight inside said star without dying painfully, black holes... just don't work that way. Super Mario Galaxy 2: Bowser somehow manages to top himself by roaring a black hole to existence for the final battle. After taking enough punishment, he admits defeat and is swallowed by the black hole, closing it. Not to worry, though, Bowser shows up again in the credits, and he's tiny! (and mad!) Mario Party 6: The aptly-named minigame Black Hole Boogie features two dueling characters close to a black hole that begins to drag them and is already swallowing meteors. The objective of the minigame is to mash A in order to swim away from a black hole. The loser gets sucked in, but then the black hole disappears, and they can be seen floating across the screen in the background after the minigame has ended. In case both players get sucked in at the same time, the minigame ends in a tie. The Void from Super Paper Mario is somewhat of a subversion: It eventually sucks up everything in the multiverse. Black holes aren't interdimensional, and they aren't cosmic vacuums; they just suck up anything that's too close. Also, there's a castle in it.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_90c73dda	comment	Animorphs: The Ellimist Chronicles - Originally a winged alien who became the Last of His Kind, the Ellimist accidentally falls into a black hole and becomes one with the fabric of space and time, effectively becoming a god capable of bending the laws of reality such as changing the rotation of a prehistoric Earth to preserve future humanity from his alien enemy, Crayak. Then Crayak duplicates this feat and also becomes a god, battling the Ellimist for all eternity. In that case, that means ANYONE who ever falls into a black hole would become as powerful as the Ellimist and Crayak. In real life, while a person could break down and become one with the singularity (center) of a black hole, they would first be ripped apart by the gravitational forces of the event horizon. Getting pulled apart and broken down to the point that even your atoms will be split apart would mean you would have no sentience to merge your consciousness with space and time as the Ellimist and Crayak did, due to a phenomenon currently known to science as dying horribly. (It's implied that this was due to Ellimist at this point being composed of a cloud of small spaceships connected by Subspace Ansible, some of which didn't enter the event horizon, meaning he was able to experience being pulled into a black hole from the perspective of both subject and observer, resulting in a Reality-Breaking Paradox that caused him to Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence.) Interestingly, in The Andalite Chronicles also has the protagonist get sucked into a black hole, though he manages to escape using the Time Matrix.

Sometimes they threaten the lives of agents and citizens, and other times they pose little to no threat, depending on the episode. "Whatever Happened to Agent Oz?" has Oz accidentally use his Black-Hole-inator on the belief that it's his Handcuff-inator. He manages to create a blue-and-black-colored black hole with a small light at the end of it that begins to suck Octavia and Oz into it, but merely blows papers nearby around the room and its pull barely touches Oprah, who is sitting in her chair. Oscar is immune to the black hole itself and doesn't get sucked into its pull, and makes it disappear with (presumably) his Un-Black-Hole-inator gadget before casually walking out. Oprah's office in and of itself also has a Black Hole Regulator, which is located behind a painting of her, as revealed in "Three's Company". This black hole doesn't suck anything in, and instead just blows wind onto O'Beth and Olympia. Whether this is due to the Regulator being broken or not isn't explained. The climactic battle in the second half of the Season 2 finale, "Odds and Ends", has Ohlm creating the Black-Hole-inator using every single gadget in Precinct 13579's arsenal. It doesn't have the appearance of a regular black hole, and Oprah and Ohlm manage to resist its pull by the former sticking a pole into an air vent nearby and holding onto the latter's hand. Similarly, Oona is immune to the black hole's pull entirely via her Powered Armor, and Olympia and Otis also don't get sucked in, even when the latter uses his newfound Flight abilities to fly up and retrieve a gadget from the sphere of gadgets that powers the black hole. The plot of "Box Trot" revolves around the Mobile Unit needing to throw the box of villain powers that The Shadow previously had into a black hole located on the other side of the town they're currently in. While the black hole, nor them throwing the box into it, isn't shown, considering the aforementioned listed black holes, it's safe to say that this black hole is also unrealistic.

But there is a limit. For bonus points, the weapon appears again as the "Rift Inducer 5000" in Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time, though this time the black hole contains an Eldritch Abomination with Combat Tentacles named "Fred", who "enjoys moonlight strolls along the beach, reading and mauling unsuspecting enemies with brutal efficiency." When upgraded into the Rift Ripper 5000, the black hole explodes due to the manufacturers "removing the horizon stabilizer". Rule of Cool and Rule of Fun are in full effect here. And in Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus, a similar weapon makes appearance. Unlike the original, this one can't suck up enemies for an insta-kill (at first...), instead merely drawing enemies together and stunning them. It's upgraded version however can, and unlike above-mentioned weapon, it works on bosses. In a non-destructive example, Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction has the duo taking a "shortcut" through one to escape a band of Space Pirates.

They show up rarely though. And when they do, they continuously damage every ship in a large radius (probably because real-life black holes are major radiation hazards). In the only campaign mission where one shows up, the player's second in command warns that "our larger ships are already having trouble keeping themselves away from it". What is unrealistic is that there is a pair of nebulae barely a single AU away from the black hole; how they managed to avoid being sucked in is a mystery. Another unrealism is the fact that the accretion disc is VERY fast when it should be very slow due to relativistic time dilation.

Funtionally, this means she can deliver an incredible Megaton Punch and renders her untargetable by techniques and ability that target a person or individual because her absurd mass makes her register her like an innanimate object instead of a person. Of course this comes with the passive ability for her body to ignore the effects of this mass she's adding, meaning she isn't bogged down by the huge amount of weight nor does she interact normally with the Square-Cube Law... but this passive ability only works up to a limit. However, there isn't a limit to how much mass she can add her Dangerous Forbidden Technique involves adding mass infinitely, overflowing her body's ability to ignore it, but causing her to collapse into a black hole. That being said, the singularity she creates is quite a bit more realistic than most featured in this article, and preventing it from destroying the world is only possible due to her own force of will limiting it and the fact that she used inside of a barrier.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: "The Impossible Planet"/"The Satan Pit" features a planet in a stable orbit around a black hole; in the show the orbit is only maintained due to the expenditure of great amounts of energy to cancel out the gravity of the black hole. In reality, objects can orbit black holes just as easily as they can orbit any other massive object (our entire galaxy orbits one). That said, the episode actually seems to depict a planet that's maintaining a stable orbit within a black hole's accretion disc without actually describing it as such. This should indeed be impossible without some fairly fancy tricks that are beyond physics as we understand it. Averted in "World Enough and Time", which has an unusually accurate portrayal of the time dilation effect theorized to happen close to a black hole but not to the event horizon. A 400-mile-long colony ship is stuck with one end towards the black hole and positioned perpendicular to it, so that the place they arrive in is 400 miles closer to the black hole than the opposite end. When Bill is taken to the far end of the ship, a short delay at their arrival point before following her lasts ten years for Bill at the other end. She watches them from time to time on a monitor, their images apparently motionless because time is passing so slowly at their end.

Press a few buttons, throw it down, and it generates a small black hole which sucks in all nearby zombies and which closes within a short period of time. Realistically the entire facility the character was on would have been sucked into, but thankfully this mode doesnâ€™t rely too much on realism. What makes it even stranger is that the creator of the device notes that it was meant to be a portable teleporter which is proven if the player decides to jump into the black hole as it will teleport them to a random part of the map. So, as to whether it's a black hole or wormhole is up for debate.

Then again, the Nova Bombs are never actually explained fully, only that they do some sort of magically scientific stuff to planets and/or stars, and their use on the black hole was a case of "What do we have to lose?" This is, after all, the same universe that has singularity cannons as semi-rare but completely viable technology, so super-future humans don't so much understand the laws of physics as have them written in pencil for whenever they feel like changing the rules. Then again, it's eventually revealed that the stars (and black holes) are alive. In fact, they're pissed at Hunt for blowing up one of their sisters. At this point, all the laws of physics can do is shrug and take a smoke break.

In one, it's the result of the Dark Star's defeat and does huge damage if you don't mash A and B to make Mario and Luigi run away, while in the final Giant Bowser battle, the mech form of Princess Peach's Castle has a cannon that fires them, with you having to keep sliding the stylus across the touch screen to make Bowser launch himself back out of them when caught (and the final part of the battle has both sides stuck in black holes on different sides of the arena).

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_e5de407c	comment	X-COM Interceptor has semi-realistic black holes that can adversely affect travel on the interstellar map. They can suck in probes (and do so from a surprising distance away) and ships traveling near them are slowed by a significant amount as they try to escape the event horizon. The plot itself is set off by the discovery of an intercepted alien message that shows massive fleets flying into a black hole. It's initially suspected this is some kind of bizarre disposal method, but eventually it's discovered that the aliens have figured out a way to turn black holes into wormholes to a Pocket Dimension where they are building an indestructible superweapon. The rest of the game turns into a race against time to find a way to counter the superweapon.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_e6267766	comment	Star Wars Legends: In the New Jedi Order series, the Yuuzhan Vong ships actually created tiny black holes as shields (they exist just long enough to absorb incoming ordnance, then collapse). Even assuming you could do that, when you collapsed the singularity the destroyed ordnance would burst out as pure energy (which would be an enormously bigger explosion than whatever the weapon could have caused normally). The same creature/components that do this also propel the ships. The Maw is a massive cluster of black holes. Theories abound that it was constructed, like a number of other unlikely celestial objects in the galaxy, to have been built by Sufficiently Advanced Aliens. The Fate of the Jedi series reveals that the Maw was made by the Killik using Centerpoint Station, that its purpose was as a prison for an Eldritch Abomination, and that destroying Centerpoint station opened a gap in the prison. Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor has all kinds of interesting things happening with black holes in Luke's visions, including a kind of Shapeshifter Showdown in which the Big Bad becomes a supermassive black hole and swallows Luke, who becomes a white fountain - the hypothetical anti-black-hole - to defeat him.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_eaeeea9b	comment	StarCraft II has this as a protoss ability. It hovers above the ground, sucking in grid lines and mathematical formulae, and everything within range is stretched out and pulled in... until the black hole finally explodes and the units emerge unharmed. In fact, when one is used on your army, the correct strategy is to order all your other units into the black hole as well so the enemy cannot easily destroy them while your main force is gone. As a bit of further explanation how this odd effect came about, the original revealed Black Hole ability did in fact destroy the units. However, it was probably changed for balance reasons (and renamed to Vortex), but the graphics were not changed.

In terms of appearance and behavior, it's very accurate... except for the fact that the Codex gives Ketos a mass of 12 Solar masses, while the black hole shown in-game on the galaxy map and cutscenes looks far too enormous for such a "low" mass; it looks as big across as an intermediate- or even supermassive-type black hole.

It used an ''artificial black hole" to do a gravity-based spacewarp that apparently takes you straight through the Warp. Touching the black hole, rather than tearing you to atoms, gets your hand stuck in "black hole goo", then pulls you bodily in before (somehow) spitting you back out (though the designer of the engine explicitly states it shouldn't have opened or been able to do that but hey, that's what happens when your ship turns into an Eldritch Abomination).

For those who don't know, the event horizon is not a physical barrier, it's just a mathematical distance from the center of the black hole, and thus rather impossible to rip a hole in. However this was stated to be a quantum singularity, of which the rules may be different. Watch the episode for more information.

Unrealistic Black Hole / int_ef8bd4a5	comment	Mega Man: Mega Man gets the Black Hole Bomb in 9. If those were real black holes, then Earth would get destroyed. And it wouldn't be sealed up by concrete. Saturn in the Game Boy Mega Man V provides the Black Hole weapon. It forms above Mega Man's head, sucks in weak enemies, and then spits out debris. Mega Man X8 has the Squeeze Bomb weapon, obtainable from Gravity Antonion, who has gravity itself at his command. It creates a slowly-moving black hole that pulls in smaller enemies and can break through crystals, especially those created by Earthrock Trilobite. The Gravity Well weapon is obtained in X3 from Gravity Beetle. The normal shot makes a localized high-gravity area to crush enemies, while the charged version launches a more powerful version off the top of the screen and is strong enough to drag enemies away. Mega Man Star Force 3: Black Ace has an exclusive card called Black End Galaxy, only usable as Black Ace. It involves creating a black hole where the enemy is, then quickly slicing through it, causing the black hole and enemy inside to blow up.
