it's a movie. it's a movie, and it's a movie.

there was no decision, the wormhole to the solar system was placed there for them.

wow, it's almost like you didn't read the OP

Because they misunderstood the intent of higher beings.

Not quite, you can actually orbit a big enough black hole if you do it just right

Its not pretty but habitable worlds could be possible with a black hole although tides would be fucked beyond belief

>>8966536
because this movie is 100% garbage drivel

The higher beings literally just opened up a worm hole so that humans could run right into the black hole and mystically whisp some secret variable back to the empowered woman scientist

The humans in the future are still trolls.

There is absolutely no difference between orbiting a star or orbiting a black hole with the same mass as that star.
And all the fancy time dilation shit only really gets going on orbits where you would've already been inside a similar mass sun anyway.
Ordinary Black holes are pretty tame at the right distance.
