Finally, what happens if we build the space-station at r<3M??? We look down the corridor, and what do we see?
Nothing. Because even though we are outside the event horizon, the gravity is still strong enough to crush you to a messy puddle on the floor. just kidding. What, curved space station with a person who gets continually closer to you depending on your choosen numerical value?

Hi cavediver,
Just a quick side note.
The values of G and c merely tell us that we are using the wrong units, so we redefine G and c to equal 1. In these "geometric" units, our equation simply becomes r=2M.
Why is it that we redifine c and G to equal 1 as opposed to keeping their original values? Also did you ever answer what it would be like if r<3M? I would like to know. Thanks
