Re: [math-fun] Black hole movies
I believe the motion of the movie (mostly), but I don't believe this is the image that Joe would see. Light orbits the black hole, as well, which should create a sort of laser effect; I don't see that here. --- I'm amazed that with all the $$$ James Cameron has made, he hasn't yet funded a sci-fi movie with true relativistic/GR graphics. We've now got the graphics horsepower to do this in high def, so we should be able to screw the heads of the current crop of teenagers on straight w.r.t. relativistic effects.

gives computer-made movies showing what you'd see falling into a hole in various ways. It helps to read the text explanation of what you are about to see on each movie.
