Aside from semantics about singularities... modeled planets have all their mass concentrated in a single point in the center. Real planets do not. There would actually be no gravity in the center of a planet as the gravitational forces pulling on you from all directions would cancel each other out.

I should've clarified. I meant KSP planets, not real ones.


If there were a black hole a little ways below me, that would be terrifying.

More food for thought... Next time you approach Mun, or Minmus... or any celestial body in KSP... Think about the fact that it's really a paper thin shell with nothing inside it!
