Abstract

In conventional descriptions, gravity near a black hole is treated as an attractive force or asmotion along curved spacetime geodesics. While successful mathematically, suchdescriptions leave open the physical question of why matter moves in highly ordered, disklike, and coherent trajectories rather than collapsing chaotically. Within the Space-Phase(SP3) framework, gravity is reinterpreted as guidance: a transport property of a structuredmedium that channels matter along preferred corridors. Matter experiences near-zerotransport tax in space-phase and therefore follows these guidance gradients faithfully. Thispaper discusses how black-hole infall, accretion disk formation, and horizon crossingemerge naturally from space-phase guidance, offering a physically intuitive complement toGeneral Relativity.
