Re: How to construct a katamari?

I classify it as such because that's exactly what it is. I'm hardly claiming to be an expert on the subject, but I've read up on the LHC a lot and I'm aware of the consequences. Miniature black holes are one of them. If you want to argue semantics, go argue with the physicists who came up with the idea.

Really, though, a black hole isn't supermassive. The ones formed by stars collapsing are, because starts are fcking huge. A black hole is just a near-singularity which has a gravitational pull that is exceedingly large for its volume. Miniature black holes are simply very, very small versions of their supermassive brothers. A singularity on a single point rather than a volume the size of an imploded star.

Okay, screw black holes, how would I create a gravitational field that increases as the katamari does?

Edit: My friend is complaining that I didn't tell you his idea. A large sponge and watered down glue.

Re: How to construct a katamari?

*sigh* Right, then. Lemme actually explain the sponges and glue thing.. You have a spherical sponge, right? And lots and lots of liquid-y glue, which you could water down or heat up or whatever to make it more runny. Then, you soak the sponge in the glue until it's completely full of glue, and then you roll the sponge over things and from the contact with the object some glue would come out of the sponge and make the object stick to it. I think it would work x)

I will.

By "super massive" I meant "having a mass which is exceptionally large". Can't have a black hole without excessive mass.

ps I just looked it up and apparently the volume of a black hole is infinite rofl wtf guess it's not that dense after all EH

Re: How to construct a katamari?

Huh, I always thought it was the other way around: density at near infinity and volume and near zero.

yeah me too but THE INTERNET THINKS OTHERWISE
