How small does a black hole need to be for you to safely hold it in your hand?
>>8999349
Depends how big you are.
>>8999350
4'3"
>>8999366
You're a big guy

There is no size small enough that you can safely hold a black hole in your hand
Any black hole that small would deteriorate extremely quickly due to hawking radiation. You would probably die in the explosion.

fuck that should just be /sci/ bingo

What a pessimistic picture
Almost all of those terms are interesting possibilities for future sciences
Saw somewhere that a black hole weighing a penny would instantly deteriorate due to Hawking radiation, whereas a penny sized blackhole would consume the planet in a matter of milliseconds

No.
>>8999349
the centre of any black hole is infinitely small .
>>8999349
Assuming you could hold a 100J explosion in your hand safely, you would also be able to safely hold a black hole with Schwarzschild radius 10^-7 plank lengths.

>10^-7 planck lengths
so it doesn't even exist?

UUUU
>>9000081
What? No! It exists, just really small.
>>9000081
To the best of my understanding no. And any black hole with a radius above a planck length would produce enough hawking radiation to kill you. On the other hand, for large enough black holes, the tidal forces at the event horizon would be very weak. So a human in a space suit could technically safely hold a large black hole -- though not for long as they'd be quickly pulled in.

something about this doesn't jive with me...
