Black Holes Matter ...
Probably caused by global warming.
Black holes destroy matter.
You beat me to it. Great one!
Isaiah 34:4
The sun, moon, and stars will crumble to dust. The sky will disappear like a scroll being rolled up, and the stars will fall like leaves dropping from a vine or a fig tree.
More like, Black Holes Anti-matter.
Is 12.4 billion years enough time for a black hole to consume or at least to totally mess up a galaxy? If so, perhaps we are having a conversation about some has-been Galaxy that has nothing left but a bunch of photons steaming through space, a few of which happen to be striking our telescopes.;)
“The research team detected large amounts of ionized carbon that were in a “turbulent state” flowing through the galaxy.”
Turbulent, ionized gas, eh? In other words a plasma, a word that cosmologists seem afraid to use, maybe because that would suggest other forces could be driving it instead of a “black hole”.
Matter is neither created or destroyed (at least not by anything in this universe).
OMG. Who gets their nose hairs trimmed in public? And, worse, in a place where cameras are likely to capture the moment for posterity?
Yep. By the time you get there, it won’t be there.
That's not exactly right. What about matter consumed by fusion?
I wonder if there's a limit on the amount of matter that can be contained at the center of a black hole. Perhaps too much matter will cause it to explode. Maybe that is how the universe itself started via the Big Bang?
12 billion years back in time. The universe is 14.5 years old. What we see happening is over and done. It could be a garden spot now.

I kind of thought that was Axlerod getting his nose

I've been interested in astronomy for 43ish years but only recently learned that there is not a bunch of super dense matter in the center of a black hole. The matter is crushed down to nothing, zero volume, and all that remains is the gravity. The concept is just amazing and fascinating. There are some differences between black holes with spin and without that I don't get but the gravity seems capable of destroying all the matter you feed them.
I'm no longer a believer in the big bang theory.
