So what do you think it would look like if you wandered too close to a black hole? Scientists at the University of Stuttgart in Germany created a black hole simulation to let you input some different parameters to see how it would look.
The program’s creators say it could be an excellent tool to familiarize people with the weird ways that black holes warp light.
The video below is a narrated sequence with a few different views. Here’s the original article at New Scientist.
