In a black hole, there is a region around the singularity, the event horizon, where the gravitational force of the singularity is strong enough so that light cannot escape. Hence, the singularity cannot be directly observed. A naked singularity, by contrast, is observable from the outside.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe theoretical existence of naked singularities is important because their existence would mean that it would be possible to observe the collapse of an object to infinite density. It would also cause foundational problems for general relativity, because in the presence of a naked singularity, general relativity cannot make predictions about the future evolution of spacetime.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSome research has suggested that if loop quantum gravity is correct, then naked singularities could exist in nature, implying that the cosmic censorship hypothesis does not hold. Numerical calculations and some other arguments have also hinted at this possibility.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo this date, no naked singularities (and no event horizons) have been observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dreamingbear Baraka Kanaan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1462051871\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781462051878\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/29\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.36d","brand":"Dreamingbear Baraka Kanaan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48444969812223,"sku":"9781462051878","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_19ed387b-afb9-4444-a431-1e28669bc2c2.jpg?v=1777215762","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/naked-singularity-dreamingbear-baraka-kanaan-9781462051878","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
