So does this mean that if you were standing inside a black hole and peed out, it would just splash back in your face?

[QUOTE=OvB;37985750]Imagine if there was a planet that was just a massive sphere of water. A bubble of water in space.[/QUOTE] It's been theorized. You run into some really weird shit when dealing with balls of water the size of Jupiter though, let alone larger. Super compressed water starts to crystallize, but not in the normal sense. You end up with really weirdly shaped crystalline structures that exhibit some strange properties.
Wasn't this an episode of star trek?

[QUOTE=andololol;37990832]Like?[/QUOTE] I don't know about the strange properties part, but I think they observed or had evidence leading up to the crystallizing part. Something like 16,000 atmospheres of pressure... In comparison, where you live is probably around 1 atmosphere... So 16,000 more to get this effect.
[QUOTE=andololol;37990832]Like?[/QUOTE] It's been a while since I read this, but I remember a few specific things. One of the properties was that it gets compressed so hard that it forms real hexagonal and tetrahedral shapes. In other words it becomes denser than water, so you can actually have a liquid water planet with a core of solid superdense ice. Another state actually starts to exhibit some degree of capacitance because of the position of electrons allowing it to hold some charge if memory serves. That means you could in theory have some weaker electromagnetic fields on said planet.
[QUOTE=Pierrewithahat;37975560]Except for the part where it's never going to make a black hole in the lifetime of the entire Earth, and if it does it'll die in seconds because it'll release energy faster than it can take it in. [/QUOTE] It already makes black holes but they instantly evaporate because they're so small.
That picture's going to be the cover of my first album someday.

[QUOTE=DrLuckyLuke;37975542]Well, if the LHC really creates a black hole, all our energy problems will be solved. Atleast for a short time.[/QUOTE] why would the LHC create a black hole? there are cosmic rays in the EeV range, let alone TeV. one would imagine such events would happen quite often, and it seems like they don't.
Forget the water, there is a giant energy source! Quickly harvest it and make wepons of mess destructions!
