I'm no cosmologist, but things like dark matter and dark energy sure seem like a modern version of Ptolomy's epicycles.

I have the feeling that in 50-100 years, cosmologists will laugh at just how wrong they were.

They'll probably just go back to cutting hair.

True enough. It wasn't until the 1930s that we realized that the universe consisted of more than our own galaxy.

My question is: Do they know how much matter has been swallowed up by all the black holes?
