The article "Wrinkles in Spacetime, the warped astrophysics of Interstellar" written by Adam Rogers explains how difficult it is to process or create the illusion of the black holes and worm holes. In the movie's Interstellar precreation, American theoretical physicist Kip Thorne began discussing the idea of building visual effect that would simulated a black hole. According to the article, Adam Rogers explains how it took roughly 30 people and thousands of computers to design an equation so could be used to simulate a black hole. The visual effect of the black hole presented in the movie was astronomical as it was presented on the big screen. The project for Interstellar incorporated black holes that simulated how black holes actually work in the real world was difficult as black holes followed different laws of relativity than everything else in the universe. For instance, everything has gravity around them and the bigger the object tends to have greater gravity like a sun exploding or a black hole forming. Kip Thorne designed equations that would simulate wormhole's structure as to create black hole for Interstellar they have to create a plot that focused on a black hole that wasn't going to pull the world. For the original director Steven Spielberg was going to be the one guiding was the film was going to be like and then backed out for unknown reasons. Then Christopher Nolan came into the picture who started with an idea that might help the plausibility of the film with time dilation or time running at different speeds. For example Nolan introduced the idea of wormholes to Kip Thorne who wrote heavily researched equations on how to build worm holes and had them sent to a team of animators. Questions that arose from Kip Thornes work with Interstellar were what are the equations the blacks holes and what did the prototype of the worm holes looked like as the prototype and final version can look astronomically different when looking at the two directly. For the article I felt like if Christopher Nolan and Kip Thorne didn't want to have these visual effects in the their movie someone from Marvel or Warner Bros would try to put something like a black hole into their universes to have a unique taster to their franchises. For the 2014 article did an interesting idea explaining to the mass audiences how black holes and worm holes worked in the real world or at least to best of human comprehension and to that I could say it did well.
