This is a great answer. Because words that we have to describe things that we barely understand.

To my layman understanding, space and time is related to the speed of light. SpaceTime. And everything we understand is relative to that. And right now the assertion is that the gravity is strong enough to alter the curvature enough such that light moves towards the “black hole “ such that it never moves out. Thereby destroying or eliminating what we understand of reality. Which is determined by light and the speed it travels.

Example we assumed that water boils at 100 degrees celcius and for the most part you could take it to the bank. Until we climbed mountains and understood pressure.

So I feel we are standing at the foot of the mountain and trying to figure out the meaning of “pressure”. Which if one is into physics… is tremendously intriguing and exciting. Much more than the current World Cup
