What changed
Proved null geodesic incompleteness from trapped-surface, causal and energy hypotheses without exact spherical symmetry.
Scientific scope
The record is Penrose's sole-author 1965 theorem and its hypotheses. It is a classical general-relativistic result, not proof that curvature necessarily diverges in every model or a quantum-gravity description.
