Re: Vanish The Sun
Well roughly 7-8 mins after this event I am "conjecturing" that the earth would be sucked into this black hole?
No. The gravitational field here would be just the same as it was. The event horizon of that black hole would be (pure guess here) a few kms only. Outside that we'd just keep orbiting like we do now.
