The Question
(Submitted January 29, 1997)
Is a black hole planar? Like, if you went UNDER a hole, what would happen?
The Answer
Black holes are really 4-dimensional (3 dimensions of space and 1 of time).
Sometimes we see drawings of a black hole that may make it look like it's
2 dimensional, but that's because we don't know how to draw 4 dimensional
objects on a piece of paper.
