black holes

[.::Taboo::.]

When an object enters a black hole at a very high velocity, and assuming one could watch it do so, would you see a red shift or a blue shift?

Well if it's moving away from you and the light wasn't captured, you should see a red shift.

Ryuu: that fact is cool.

Blue.


Objects that are moving away from you appear to be blue.

The opposite is red.

Listen, lego-fox, if we wanted black-hole facts we'd just google them.

Go away.

Better yet, find the nearest black hole and die in it.

It was a joke; a play on "find the nearest fire and die in it", suited to the theme of the topic.

You confused the two.
Red shift refers to the red end of the visible light spectrum, and the infrared end of the radiation spectrum.  Red waves are low energy waves, and the physics of an object moving away from you means longer wavelengths from your frame of reference.  The longer wavelength means less energy, and that's why objects moving away from you is called a red shift.

Similar idea for a blue shift.
