description

Abstract Ori has recently shown that an astronaut approaching the inner horizon of a black hole is not necessarily torn apart by tidal forces. This raises anew the possibility of astronavigation through black holes, perhaps to other universes. We re-examine this question in the light of hypotheses about probable conditions in the black hole core.
