Great, now I'm hungry.
The question of "What's on the other side of a black hole" has often been orbiting my mind like an invisible micro-planet with micro aliens, shooting their own version of NERF guns at my forehead.

Assuming that we would survive (which there's no possibility of surviving), we would be stretched (or turned into spaghetti like you said), thus we would… ultimately be freak shows. Gumby at its greatest.

Assuming models of even horizon-crossing are somewhat accurate, we probably would turn into spaghetti. As long as it comes with a generous serving of alfredo sauce, I'm perfectly fine with it.

Let's say for a moment that in 2012 (I have to make it fit the topic) our Sun implodes and we survive (nonsense, I know), the implosion of our Sun creates a black hole.

Now, let's say that our planet is sucked into the black hole, now, this is impossible, of course, but let's say that we survive our journey into the black hole, now the question is… What exactly is on the other side of that black hole, say that we pass through the hole, do we re-enter the space around the black hole? Do we somehow get shot like a bullet to another dimension (oh no, star trek!), or perhaps we don't go anywhere, we're simply stuck there.

So… What's on the other side?
