So one way to think about this is to think that as you're approaching the black hole, the astronaut's space-time is rotating relative to your space-time. So let's say right now my left is your right. We're not shocked by the fact that there's this relativity in left and right. It's completely understood. And I can perform a spatial rotation to align my left with your left.

Right now, I've completely rotated left out. If I just want to draw a compass diagram, not a compass diagram, but at the top of maps, there's a north, south, east, west, but now time is up, down, and one direction of space is, let's say, east, west. As you approach the black hole, it's as though you're rotating in space-time, is one way of thinking about it. What is the effect of that?

The effect of that is as this astronaut gets closer and closer to the event horizon, Part of their space is rotated into my time and part of their time is rotated into my space. So in other words, their clocks seem to be less aligned with my time. And the overall effect is that their time seems to dilate.

The spacing between ticks on the clock of their watch, let's say, on the face of their watch, is elongated, dilated. relative to mine. And it seems to me that their watches are running slowly, even though they were made in the same factory as mine, they were both synchronized beautifully, and they're excellent Swiss watches. It seems as though time is elapsing more slowly for my companion.

And likewise, for them, it seems like mine's going really fast. So years could elapse In my space station, my plants come and go. They die. I age faster. I've got gray hair. And they're falling in, and it's been minutes in their frame of reference. Flowers and their little rocket ship haven't rotted. They don't have gray hair. Their biological clocks have slown down relative to ours.

Eventually, at the event horizon, it's so extreme, it's so slow, it's as though their clocks have stopped altogether from my point of view. And that's to say that it's as though their time has completely rotated into my space. And this is connected with the idea that inside the black hole, space and time have switched places. So I might see them hover there for millennia.
