Black hole ripping

[Morpheuskibbe]

When things make contact with a black hole they vanish. Now that seems normal but in reality the whole planet can't just go 'boink' all at once expecially if only the very edge grazed the small black hole as it flew by.

I would suggest that if somethign would touch a black hole, instead reduce its radius (by removing mass) such that the impact does not occur; then Give half the lost mass to the black hole and spew the other half out the opposite side just like tidal ripping.

If anything got close enough to the event horizon of a black hole it would be experiencing so much stress that roche forces would tear it apart. I do see that happen in the game though its not to the effect that you might expect, as an object can and does seem to be swallowed hole rather than taken apart and spagettified more often than not.

Ya i wanted to see if I coudl make an acretion disk form by putting a bunch of stuff really close. it sorta worked, but then the debris came together by chance, made one of the planets get bigger and 'boink' it was gone. kinda messed up my disk.

Well, im pretty sure that the planet would not be ripped apart as the black holes gravity is so strong. Instead, it would probably be spaghetified and then eventually shrunk down and abosorbed when it reaches the event horizon

If the object existed before it reached the horizon in any form it would be torn apart first, which may be as far out as 1 or 2 AU form the hole itself the roche limit would be reached and begin to crumble the object, almost nothing naturally formed can survive long enough to reach the center before its nothing but grains of dust and superheated gas. Supposing the object just appeared out of nowhere right next to the hole it would depend on the mass of the hole itself as to where that spagettifaction begins, I remember reading that smaller holes have a gravitational radius that is stronger and more compact than the supermassive ones and thus can begin to strech things out before they get close to the horizon, while with the larger ones this actually happens after you cross the horizon. In any case anything passing the horizon is going to end up being crushed into an infinitly small point or singularity
