Question: Do you belive that a black hole is a portal to an alternate dimension?

No one knows what goes on inside a black hole, because it’s impossible to see inside them unfortunately. But we do know that it’s very strange inside and the laws of the Universe get a bit mixed up, so you never know, they could be! The problem is that if you get too close to a black hole you get ‘spaghettified’ (that is the technical term!), which means you get stretched out like a big piece of spaghetti! It happens because your feet get pulled towards the black hole faster than your head does. Unfortunately, you probably wouldn’t survive the experience, so we might never know whether black holes are portals at all 🙁
