This, of course, is not what is illustrated, but it has me wondering: if the black hole is rotating (which probably most are), is a direct impact even possible? My understanding is that frame dragging would pull the star into an orbit regardless.If the star directly impacts a massive black hole, then the star falls in completely -- and everything vanishes.
