According to Einstein’s general theory of relativity, it is possible[in certain circumstances]to have the centrifugal force directed inward[rather than outward]from the center of a circular motion. This implies that, if an object were to attain orbit around a massive object[such as a black hole]the centrifugal force would be directed inward, towards its center, rather than away from it.

Using computer models, research has shown that, in the area close to a black hole even the very dynamic effects that depend on the usual sense of inward and outward are reversed. The reason? The very gravitational field that makes a black hole what it is.

By the end of the twentieth century astronomers had yet to observe a black hole directly, but enough indirect evidence has been collected to convince the majority of their likely existence. Enough so that it is believed that such an object is what inhabits the very heart of our galaxy.

While it is accepted that black holes trap forever any radiation or matter that gets too close, there is the point[its event horizon]were, if one does not cross, one feels nothing at all. It is this place that defines the very extent, or gravitational radius of a black hole. Hence, a black hole with the same mass as earth’s sun, would have a gravitational radius of approximately three kilometers. So an object traveling at a distance of one and one half times this distance would be able to orbit the black hole with no centrifugal effects at all.

However, to the object, it would appear to continually travel in a straight line, the horizon being just beyond. Coined the seeing-is-believing principle, it implies that: ‘If any object traveled at a constant speed along the path of a light ray curved by a massive gravitational field[i.e. a black hole], the object would behave as though it were traveling in a straight line[provided the gravitational field remained constant.’

Conventional geometry uses the method of measuring a curve by placing as many straight rulers as will fit along that curve, this distance is referred to as a geodesic[which the dictionary defines as: the shortest line between two points on any mathematically defined surface]. However, as with conventional flat maps, distortions arise from the ‘laying out’ of a curved surface onto a flat one. Hence was the field of optical geometry developed.

The re-scaling employed by optical geometry re-straightens light rays in a manner that explains the seemingly paradoxical behavior of an object moving along the path of the previously circular light ray. Thus, in certain situations, space appears to be turned inside out.

To illustrate this, if a cloud of gas were to be pulled into the orbit of a black hole, the viscous stresses in the cloud would transfer its angular momentum inward[rather than outward as would ordinarily occur in normal space]. The explanation for this is quite simple; As the creation of a black hole commences[and its stellar matter collapses], the space surrounding it is turned ‘INSIDE OUT’. Thus, the outward direction as defined by straight rulers is directly opposite the outward direction as defined by light rays.

Hence, the apparent paradox is merely a problem of geometry, as the inward and outward forces of a black hole are not absolute concepts, but relative in spaces warped by massive gravitational fields.
