Feb 18, 2016 at 15:27 | comment | added | userLTK | I rather like this question cause it's both, simple and at the same time, probably impossible to answer. A problem lies in defining what a singularity is. See physics.stackexchange.com/questions/3892/… But if you define singularities as infinitely small points which they may or may not be, would the two infinitely small points meet or will they only spiral ever closer? That's an interesting mathematical question that makes me think of Zeno and his silly paradox. | |
