Summary[edit]

Description
English: Cosmic gravity well.

We live in a black-hole continuum and thus are caught in the flow of time; the flow's diameter is decreasing, while the flow's velocity is increasing:[1]

The horizon is a point of no return, but nothing special happens to a body such as an astronaut as it passes through the horizon (in free fall). The tidal effects merely grow continuously, just as they do as one approaches other massive bodies. This can be illustrated by an analogy with flowing water. If there is laminar flow through a large pipe of decreasing diameter, then the flow velocity increases as a function of distance along the pipe, and one can imagine that at some point zs the flow velocity exceeds the speed of sound in water. Then sound waves emitted from z > zs will never propagate to z < zs. ...

The conclusion is that motion forward in time is motion towards smaller r. An object entering the horizon is carried down to r = 0 just as surely as you and I are carried into next week.

—Andrew M. Steane, Relativity Made Relatively Easy OUP, 2012, pp. 387–88

Bernoulli's principle dictates that as the velocity of the gravitational flow of protons increases, the gravitational potential energy of the protons becomes more negative, which increases the gravitational force accelerating the protons towards the continuum's central proton. Simultaneously, it decreases the protons' rest mass,[2] i.e. decreases their resistance to further acceleration. Having radiated away a half of their initial rest mass, all protons instantaneously tunnel into the continuum's central proton.

"Understanding why rest masses are reduced in a gravitational field only requires a simple insight: when an object is raised in a gravitational field, the gravitational potential energy increase is real, and exists as an increase, usually tiny, in the rest mass of the object."
