NASA has created a visualization of what it would be like to fly through the event horizon of a black hole
and includes several videos: one in which an observer just misses the “point of no return,” one in which the viewer plunges into the depths of the event horizon, explainer videos, and a 360-degree experience.
“If you have the choice, you want to fall into a supermassive black hole,” said Jeremy Schnittman, an astrophysicist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center. “Stellar-mass black holes, which contain up to about 30 solar masses, possess much smaller event horizons and stronger tidal forces, which can rip apart approaching objects before they get to the horizon.”
