Black Hole Dome
A dome built from glass in such a way as to distort the view of the sky same way as a black hole would for those who're near it. | |
The dome would have a lens on its side, to emulate gravitational lensing, with a black filter to simulate the event horizon. People could watch the simulated black hole in the night sky.

This is a metaphor for the U.S. budget defecit,
right ? |

Cool as gigantic lenses in domes is as an exercise in
lense-grinding, wouldn't it be much more practical
(and, I imagine, fully baked in better planetariums
since at least in mid 1990s) to just project the stars
on a planetarium dome with one of the current
generation fully computerized systems, simulating a
BH however you wish (and can program)? |
