Default black-holes, do they have two event horizions

what happens at the north , happens at the south poles of a mass

look

the way I'm thinking is this ;

inorder for gravity to collapse a mass into a black-hole is to do with three dimensional physical dynamics

so that the collapse happens at both poles of the mass

hence the production of two event horizons

it only makes sense , because both poles have an equal amount of gravity

if this is NOT happening , that a black-hole is a single polar phenonom then a black-hole , if it does exist , is because of a completely different mechanism , of which we fully don't understand

The poles have nothing to do with it.

I already told you. The event horizon surrounds the Black Hole.
All the way around.

I'm not sure why you think there would be "two event horizons" - a event horizon is not a physical inity it's just where the escape velocity is greater than c...

North, do you view the event horizon like a ring- similar to the rings around Saturn?
If so, you are suffering a misconception.

The event horizon would surround the black hole. It wouldn't matter from which angle you looked at it.

Yeah, the original star was a three dimensional object, so to me it makes sense to me that the event horizon would be spherical as well. The common artistic impression of a 2D wire grid deforming in 3D is an artistic representation to help us understand a difficult subject to imagine. That doesn't mean it reflects reality per say.

so there are two event-horizions then ?

Hmmmm
Come to think of it, you're right.

Call of Duty IV certainly is a much better analogy for an event horizon than Halo is.
It's almost as good as Risk™.

If you steered your starship towards a Sun, would you crash into it only if you hit it at one of its poles?


If that Sun had become a black hole first, would you only be captured by that black hole if you approached towards one of its poles?

The gravity of a black hole is the same as the original star.
The term 'black hole' is very misleading. It implies a deformation of a 2D plane when in fact it's 3D. (actually 4D, because time gets screwy too around a black hole) A 3d deformation in space time. Stop taking the rubber sheet literally.

The collapse is All Over the Star. Everywhere.
The effect is Everywhere on the star.
What do you mean by more evident?
What does this have to do with the Event Horizon?

Do you always just Make Stuff up?
Is that easier than actually, you know, learning what you're talking about?

gravity is based on attraction

and the attraction by gravity and therefore the collapse of gravity by a mass should also be three dimensional

so wherever this black-hole event horizion resides , so there should be at the opposite end

obivously

if the event horizion of a black-hole is singular , at only one point on the sphere of the mass , then we don't fully understand why ?

for this implies an inbalance of gravity on the mass

Even though I don't believe in the event horizon, I'll defend the idea with my understanding of how an event horizon black hole forms: it starts at the limit of having mass=zero and radius=0 and grows inside a dying star. From that point on, all the matter in the star just falls towards the event horizon, and the event horizon expands, until the whole of the ex-star's matter is falling towards the event horizon.

Maybe that helps....

Because it's not at one point on a sphere. It is the sphere.

but does the event horizion start from a single point , on the mass ?

if so why there at this point ?

What point? Are you thinking of some kind of hole at a particular spot on a sphere?
