There Are No Such Things As Black Holes

But there was a consensus, at least that’s what Al Gore said. I guess physics is not up to a vote after all.

Ahem!!!! That’s holes of color to you!

"Was there grudge theft involved? Just asking..."

I'm of the opinion that she was selling them on the black market to pay off her gambling debts.

“How, if there are no black holes, can that ‘nonexistant thing’, located in the constellation Cygnus, and has been known for over 35 years, exist?”

It HAS to be true! Rush wrote a song about it.

Small minds. I find it entertaining to listen to/read so-called 'brilliant' scientists' babbling about how 'things are impossible' because their small minds can't quantify or prove them.

Case in point: Every scientist I've ever read suggests the universe is finite and the evidence shows that in its ENTIRETY it was created in the 'big bang'.

I suggest the universe is infinite to unknown limits beyond our comprehension or ability to measure/observe and that it's just dumb luck we haven't been struck by a gamma burst. Furthermore, our 'science' is rooted in only a couple thousand years' of observations. Some of those same scientists are unable to grasp the possibilities of postulating the 'what ifs' of 100,000 years of science, let alone 1,000,000.

Besides, I don't think Laura Mersini-Houghton gets out much because she likely is on the receiving end of this 'black hole':

Scientists find new black hole, located in Washington D.C.

Even if there are no black holes there is still something very powerful spinning our galaxy around in circles.

In my experience, that'd be beer.

[MNDude]

it’s probably for best. It was always a rather racist term to begin with.

[discostu]

The same way bees can’t fly, we’re missing something. That’s really what these kinds of things say “the process we think does this wouldn’t actually work so clearly we’re missing something”, which doesn’t make a very exciting headline.

They're pronounced "azaleas"

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

there is still something very powerful spinning our galaxy around in circles.

We are being flushed?

[SampleMan]

Err.... go away, black holes are settled science.

You mean AFTER she conquered that drinking problem. You are rebounding well!

[SMARTY]

Gee-Everyone lost their socks!!

[12th_Monkey]

HA!

[inpajamas]

Oh yea da is, I hears dem rappin bout dem on da radio all du time.

[tet68]

I’m still trying to wrap my mind around three boobs...

But, I’m conflicted, if a star collapses and creates
a singularity with an event horizon, but then blasts
radiation out until there is no singularity or event
horizon, shouldn’t there be some kind of evidence left
of it’s prior existence?
Where does this radiation go? Out? How far?

Zack: “Agree to disagree. That’s what I love about science, there’s no one right answer.”

Holly: Well, the thing about a black hole - its main distinguishing feature - is it’s black. And the thing about space, the colour of space, your basic space colour, is black. So how are you supposed to see them?

Rimmer: But five of them? . How can you manage to miss five black holes?

Holly: It’s always the way, innit? You hang around for three million years in deep space and there hasn’t been one, then all of a sudden five turn up at once.

[Da Coyote]

Now THAT is way cool!!

Dear zircon (know where you got that, too!),

Albert Einstein, once again, is being bashed, period.

I was not aware of Rush’s song, although i am sure it is another parody.
