" As the Ranger carries Cooper deeper and deeper into the bowels of Gargantua, he continues to see the universe above himself.

The singularity is weak at first, but it grows stronger rapidly, as more and more stuff falls into Gargantua and piles up in a thin sheet (Chapter 27). Einstein’s laws dictate this. "
