What Happens at the Event Horizon?

The video explores the complex nature of black holes and event horizons, introducing the Penrose diagram as a tool to understand these phenomena. It explains how spacetime diagrams represent black holes and the unique features of the Penrose diagram, such as compactification and conformal transformation. Using a monkey analogy, the video illustrates the behavior of objects near and inside black holes, addressing common questions about event horizons and singularities.

How does the speed of light affect the perception of time near a black hole?

How does the concept of spacetime change when considering black holes?

What would happen to an object trying to escape a black hole's event horizon?

What are the differences between a Schwarzschild black hole and other types?
