my meager understanding is that the only constant in the universe is the speed of causality (aka speed of light). time and space are malleable so that light always travels at lightspeed no matter the reference point

...and my head hurts from just that.

the quantum stuff is just like next level crazy but man i gotta admit some of the coolest theories come from it

No worries. It doesn't make your life easier if you even understand all that complex shit  Wink
There's probably no gain from it apart of "mind wanking" (that's a simple translation of what i am used to call it).

Consider: A photon (light) is massless. Only massless energy can travel at speed of light.
Question: How can a black hole make (massless) light disappear, then?

Einstein and his Partners in science were brilliant, but they defined some laws that just don't match recent, scientifically proven observations.
We are at the beginning again. But don't dare to question the established laws of physics. Dog bites tail...
So, if you are already mad, wrapping your mind around these matters could bring you joy.
Otherwise... You don't want to get mad, do you?  Cheesy

i though the black holes event horizon (or whatever its called) expanded to encompass the spot where the photon was. once inside the black hole all bets are very much off.

again a lot of this stuff just slides off my smooth brain when i try to understand it.

yeah:

Quote
Once light crosses the event horizon, it cannot escape because the paths that light could take to exit the event horizon all point back inside, towards the center of the black hole

A warped space, man.

Btw, this make the black holes black...or almost black.
1. What we see is an accretion disk...remember Gargantua from the 'Interstellar"...a pretty accurate images.
2. Even when there are only black holes in the universe and there are no accretion disks, the black hole would still emit small amount of light via Hawking radiation mechanism...which is very exotic.
3. Some think that because of Hawking radiation, black holes are not eternal, but a looong time...by current estimates 10^67-10^1000 years aka up to
100 trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion years.

A long time...which, somehow, does not seem right to this fella.
Perhaps, we would "rip" instead.
