Pretty much. While white holes are still only a theory, they are things that hypothetically allow mass and energy to escape but not enter. This is the opposite of a black hole which allows mass and energy to enter, but not to escape. Some theorize that the matter and energy escaping from the white hole may have gotten there from falling into a black hole but just missing the singularity and therefore escaping. I'm no expert on white holes, and as I said earlier they are still a theory. But from what I do know I think it is safe to say that yes, white holes are pretty much the opposite of black holes.

I rely don't know what a white hole is there most likely is just a black hole and there is no white hole unless you got answers.

Is there opposite of black hole?

Yes, a white hole. It throws stuff out instead of sucking it in.


Is a white hole just as dangerous as a black hole?

There is no evidence that white holes exist.


Could a black hole destroy a blue or white star?

Theoretically, a black hole can destroy anything.


Is there a such thing as white holes and if there is what happens if a black hole collides with it?

It is not known whether there actually are white holes, or whether they might exist - and if they do, exactly what properties they would have. White holes are a possible solution to the equations of Relativity, but that doesn't mean they actually exist. The problem is that they are in a way the reverse of a black hole - nothing can get OUT OF a black hole, and nothing can get INTO white hole. As a result, it seems to be impossible to destroy a black hole... But similarly, it would also be impossible to create a while hole.


What is the spere surrounding a black hole is called?

The area surrounding a black hole is called the event horizon. Any object that gets caught in the event horizon will never return. All black holes have an event horizon. Black holes that have a charge and a spin, will generally have an inner horizon (coinciding to the outer horizon, the event horizon). At the inner horizon, matter is infinitely compressed and then sucked into the singularity. Along with black holes are white holes (otherwise known as "anti-black holes"). White holes are the exact opposite of a black hole, instead of sucking and trapping matter to where it is lost from the universe, white holes spew out matter and return it to the universe. Most scientists agree that white holes don't exist in our universe because they are very unstable. If the white hole was able to exist at all, it would last for only a couple of milliseconds before evaporating. The main thing between a black hole and a white hole is that a white hole is the black hole in the future. Inside the inner horizon, something bizarre happens. Matter enters one of two very narrow laser like beams. One beam goes against the black hole's spin and has positive energy and moves forward in time, but here's the real brainteaser, matter that enters the beam moving WITH the black hole's spin moves backwards in time and has negative energy. These two beams are shot out of the black hole at either end at nearly the speed of light. The black hole is basically a giant particle accelerator. Now I was correct. When the black hole shoots out the two beams, it becomes the white hole from the distant future. The two are the same. Now I know you just wanted the answer to the event horizon, but I just wanted to share a little more knowledge.

Are white holes white or black?

Not much is really known about white holes... including the question whether they exist, or even can exist. The term "white" hole has simply been used in comparison with a "black hole", which is in some ways the opposite.


Do white holes blow?

White-holes are a theoretical hypothesis that they are the opposite of a black-hole, in which case they would push matter out into space yes.

What would happen after getting sucked in a black hole?

Their is not more info about this because there are no evidences of humans being sucked into black hole but once sucked in, the object which has been sucked in will not be able to escape out from black hole's event horizon as a black hole very very very very very strong gravitational field. But some scientists say that object which went into the black hole comes out through a white hole (which is just the opposite of black holes in all aspects)


How are blackholes and wormholes related?

There is a theory that tells that when you fall in a black hole, you are not destroyed but you are "teleported" to a white hole. The wormhole is a inter-dimensional tunnel that connects a black hole to a white hole.
