Quantum Gravity JO - Classical and Quantum Gravity SP - 115007 EP - 12pp VL - 33 IS - 11 PB - Iop Publishing Ltd KW - Singularities KW - black holes KW - metric-affine geometry AB - The impact of curvature divergences on physical observers in a black hole space-time, which, nonetheless, is geodesically complete is investigated. This space-time is an exact solution of certain extensions of general relativity coupled to Maxwell's electrodynamics and, roughly speaking, consists of two Reissner-Nordstrom (or Schwarzschild or Minkowski) geometries connected by a spherical wormhole near the center. We find that, despite the existence of infinite tidal forces, causal contact is never lost among the elements making up the observer. This suggests that curvature divergences may not be as pathological as traditionally thought.
