    I’d fund two space missions:

    Mission 1: to create so many physical coins to cause the formation of a black hole in orbit around the Sun.

    Mission 2: to bring a certain guy in space and literally kick him in the ass in the direction of the mentioned black hole.

      If you make a black hole next to the sun, I’m thinking the sun is gonna be the thing that orbits the black hole. Also the whole solar system is fucked. But maybe that’s what you wanted with that scenario. 😅

        It depends on the mass of the black hole. If you could squeeze the Earth to a small enough size, it would become a black hole and not much less would change from a gravitational point of view.

          I guess that’s the implied assumption here, that there’s nothing “squeezing” a celestial body but its own gravitation. 😛
