What Would Negative Mass Look Like and How Would It Behave?

AI Thread Summary
Negative mass is a theoretical concept that raises questions about its appearance and behavior, with some speculating it could resemble an ordinary rock. If negative mass were to exist, it would move in the opposite direction of any applied force, leading to the paradox of potentially being impossible to move. This raises the question of whether it would remain stationary or exhibit unique movement patterns. However, since negative mass has not been observed and lacks empirical evidence, its properties and implications remain purely speculative. The discussion highlights the challenges in understanding a phenomenon that does not currently exist in our physical reality.

Let's say that negative mass existed, what might it look like? Could it look like an ordinary rock stuck in the ground? If so, what would happen if you tried to move it around? If it moves in the opposite direction it is push then wouldn't it be impossible to move it in any direction? Would it be stuck where it is?

No one can answer that. It doesn't exist as far as we know, and we have no reason to think that it does. Because of that we cannot possibly say what it might or might not do, as we don't know the properties of it.
 
Thread 'Is there a white hole inside every black hole?'
This is what I am thinking. How much feasible is it? There is a white hole inside every black hole The white hole spits mass/energy out continuously The mass/energy that is spit out of a white hole drops back into it eventually. This is because of extreme space time curvature around the white hole Ironically this extreme space time curvature of the space around a white hole is caused by the huge mass/energy packed in the white hole Because of continuously spitting mass/energy which keeps...
