Don't bother reading this...

If the laws of physics break down at the point of singularity in what we perceive to be the centre of a black hole could there not conceivably be another universe on the "other side"??

I have been thinking about this for a while now and since I am a bit of an astrophysicists wannabe I thought I would write it down

So...

In a black hole the huge gravity - approaching infinity - compresses everything down to a single point - the singularity - where apparently the laws of physics no longer apply. All conceived notions of understanding about space and time are out the window. Fundamental particles are compressed so tightly that they loose all of their individual characteristics and are by our understanding a uniform ball of matter/energy that outside of the gravitational force of a black hole would be so unstable as to cause an unfathomable explosion. Coupled with the fact that time as we know it doesn't exist in a black hole I conceive that all the matter that enters a black hole could be released at a single point in time and space. Like a big bang perhaps? If our perception of space holds no relevance inside a black hole is it not possible that what we perceive to be a celestial body the size of a star could actually contain within it a vast expanse of space?

Are we inside a black hole right now?
