In astrophysics, an event horizon is a boundary beyond which events cannot affect an outside observer. Wolfgang Rindler coined the term in the 1950s. [1]In 1784, John Michell proposed that gravity can be strong enough in the vicinity of massive compact objects that even light cannot escape. [2]
An event horizon is a boundary around a black hole inside which events cannot affect an outside observer. Event horizon or Event Horizon may also refer to: Event Horizon Telescope, a type of astronomical interferometer; Event Horizon, a 1997 science fiction/horror film; Event Horizon, a 2007 site installation by Antony Gormley
Upon boarding the Event Horizon, the crew finds evidence of a massacre. As they search for survivors, the ship's gravity drive activates and briefly pulls Justin into a portal while also causing a shock wave that damages the Lewis and Clark. The crew are forced to board the Event Horizon while Justin emerges in a catatonic state.
Event horizon, a boundary in spacetime beyond which events cannot affect the observer, thus referring to a black hole's boundary and the boundary of an expanding universe; Apparent horizon, a surface defined in general relativity; Cauchy horizon, a surface found in the study of Cauchy problems; Cosmological horizon, a limit of observability
There is a body of films that feature space stations. Science fiction films are the most popular genre to have featured both real-life space stations such as the International Space Station and Mir as well as fictional ones such as the Death Star and the Satellite of Love.
When Paramount got its first look at a cut of “Event Horizon” in 1997, some studio executives thought that director Paul W.S. Anderson had made a film so disturbing that it slandered outer ...
The advantage is that this notion of a horizon is mathematically convenient and does not depend on the observer, unlike apparent horizons, for example. The disadvantage is that it requires the full history (all the way into the future) of the spacetime to be known, thus making event horizons unsuitable for empirical tests. [4]
Kevin Costner’s second installment of his multipart epic Horizon: An American Saga will premiere at the 2024 Venice Film Festival in September. The news comes three weeks after it was announced ...
