Jan 23, 2013 at 17:18 | comment | added | Alan Rominger | Back when this was answered, I was not aware of the "knife edge" orbits and other strange things around a black hole: physics.stackexchange.com/questions/46332/… It would seem that one can orbit closely around a BH for a long time and make it back out unscathed. As Scott correctly observes, however, it's unclear what kind of time dilation factor this would buy you, and that's where we're left. | |
