Suppose you discover a naked singularity without its surrounding event horizon. What effect would such an object have on the neighboring region of space?
A) The "black hole" would no longer be black and would probably be very bright.
B) Without the shielding effect of the event horizon, the black hole's gravity would begin pulling in stars and, indeed, whole galaxies to merge with it.
C) The singularity would probably be spinning rapidly, because any infalling material from the accretion disk would now reach the singularity after a short journey.
D) The effects of a naked singularity are completely unpredictable.
