No, energy falling into a black hole increases the mass of the black hole. Mathematically it's quite sound, built upon empirically well founded theories. Practiaclly, it's a bit difficult to test, no direct observations have been made.ghost7584 said:Energy caught in a black hole. Does it cease to exist or not?
[By cease to exist I mean cease to exist in the physical world perhaps spilling into another space-time dimension different from the physical world.]
Just speculating. No experiments to test this theory or the others you are talking about. Science without experimental tests is bordering on philosophy.
