And that there's a great this great book by Kip Thorne actually we just mentioned him he got the Nobel Prize last year for the gravitational waves and he wrote a brilliant blog links in the 80s called black holes and time warps way talks about the the answer is we don't fully know.
Why people recommend it
Black Holes & Time Warps by Kip Thorne is a popular science book exploring the bizarre physics of gravitational collapse, time dilation, and the theoretical mechanics of black holes and wormholes. On the January 28, 2019 episode of The Joe Rogan Experience titled #1233 - Brian Cox, physicist Brian Cox recommended the book during a conversation about Kip Thorne winning the Nobel Prize for the detection of gravitational waves. Cox praised Thorne's work, highlighting a brilliant book written in the 1980s that addressed complex cosmic phenomena such as whether wormholes could remain stable enough for interstellar travel. Cox noted that Thorne explored these profound concepts while honestly acknowledging the limitations of human knowledge, specifically that researchers still do not fully understand the ultimate mechanics governing these extreme gravitational environments. Listeners interested in astrophysics and the real science behind spacetime manipulation were directed to Thorne's accessible yet deeply researched volume as an essential starting point for understanding the universe's most enigmatic structures.
