I will say, the one thing that was great about this movie was all the theory in it. I still find myself thinking about how it all worked/could work.

what did you think about the "an hour on this planet costs us 7 years in earth time" relativity?

I have some questions about it, like why did the guy orbiting that planet age in earth years?

they purposefully kept the main ship out of the time-altering influence.

No. The planet they went to

But wasn't he just orbiting that planet? So if the planet was in the black hole time altering influence, wouldn't it's orbit be also?

I was gonna make a Loki joke, but wasn't the planet named Loki?

In orbit perpendicular to the black hole's field? Not that it makes any more sense, but anyway.

I don't know. Just seems like anything associated with that planet would have the same time effect. Like if there was a moon orbiting that planet the time works be the same as on that planet, right?

this the best i could do, but its still stupid,

Yeah i guess that makes sense

I want to make a large printout of this and hang it on my wall.

burt, if you don't draw us some cool-looking creatures i'm going to knock my milk over on my coloring book

That illustration actually cleared things up for me.

Hold on. I'm consulting with NASA to make sure. There may be some problems.

Well?

I have an issue with humans being able to survive on any planet within the pull of a black hole. The spaghetti effect would take place.

Also, since I've been researching this extensively since I saw the movie, the time differential wouldn't be that great if they were somehow able to survive being near the black hole.

my sister and brother in law both experience great difficulty in understanding space/time differentials.
entire dinner conversations have revolved around it.
i suggested the both read more science fiction after my brother in law basically told me the entire plot of interstellar, and then asked if i was planning on seeing it :/
