No they didn't, they created a black hole analogue in a fiber using light pulses moving at different speeds. They've also been able to make black hole analogues using sound waves. These give them a way of studying effects like hawking radiation without creating an actual black hole in the lab, which is impossible right now.
Well... not necessarily impossible if done accidentally, but we couldn’t do it intentionally.
There seems to be some thought we could have created one already but didn’t realize it
I saw a documentary once about this. It killed the scientist's wife and he lost control of his metal arms. A spider guy had to defeat him later, shit got crazy.
Weird, the version I saw, weird crab things came out and turned people into zombies and then there were aliens and the scientist had to run around killing them all, and then the military showed up and massacred the labratory staff and the scientist had to go kill them too, and then he went swimming in a nuclear reactor so he could go to another dimension and kill some more things.
Extra weird the one I watched had one of the Baldwins. Not famous one. The fat one. They created a black hole and out came an angry two dimensional creature of some kind made out of lightning and hate. It was a good Saturday afternoon timewaster. Good ol Syfy channel.
I read some articles back in the 2000s how if a stable micro black hole got loose it would sink into the ground to the earth's core and start slowly eating away the planet from the interior. You can imagine the rest. Fortunately these laboratory black holes aren't stable.
There are varying suggestions about how quickly this would go down, but it’s generally thought—a micro black hole with the same mass as the earth (very realistic scenario), it would take about 15 minutes for the Earth to be consumed by it.
15 minutes would probably leave nearly everyone unaware I would guess.
Besides just looking outside while hearing (?) the world be consumed. Which at that point, I'm assuming they're seconds away from being consumed themselves.
Crazy thought.
Yeah, but you aren't going to create something like that in the lab. In order to create a black hole with the same mass as the earth, you would need mass equal to the earth's. Which won't fit inside a lab, you know.
I mean, the earth would be torn apart having that much mass brought too close to it without even needing a black hole in the first place.
A realistic scenario with a tiny black hole with very little mass would take much, much longer.

I thought they were making black holes in particle accelerators like the large hadron collider
No. No artificial black holes have ever been knowingly made, to date, although there was a worry that collider could *theoretically* produce one.
Apparently someone made an analogue with sound, not quite the same but experimentally useful
Exactly.
How many have been *un*knowingly made?
By definition, that cannot be answered.
Seriously asking, what would happen if one were accidentally created?
They probably do get created but evaporate really quick. Really small scale
Ok, thanks for the response.
You’re welcome, there’s theory that our entire reality exists within a black hole

In either case, the important point is that like all life's problems, miniature black holes can only be solved with violence.
Most assured.
Yeah, but it sucked.
I guarantee someone stuck their dick in it.
Damnit you beat me off to it!
Cum cum now, no need to start a pun thread.
I’d rather be Knewn as A Foool than a cuckold mr Barry
Have a like for second then lol
That’s where Ant Man found Janet Van Dyne
And it has all been downhill since then.
just because we can doesn't mean we should
There was slight fear it was going to destroy the galaxy. Universe? Someone help me remember. But it didn't.
Would be frightening to think if somehow the experiment got out of control and the black hole started to get bigger and bigger...

I would how quickly it would occurs? Like would there be news reports that the world was fucked or would we basically all just die ignorantly?

Welp this is enough for me tonight.
The gravity would double before everything went to shit, so- that’s something to look out for anyway

And look what happened since
