Notable Plan 9 quotations:
“Your stupid minds! Stupid! Stupid!”—Eros
“The grief of his wife’s death
-became greater and greater agony.
-The home they had so long shared together,
became a tomb.
-A sweet memory of her joyous living.
-The sky to which she had once looked,
was now only a covering for her dead body.
-The ever-beautiful flowers she had
planted with her own hand,
-became nothing more than the
lost roses of her cheeks.”—Narrator

Can you prove that it didn’t happen ?”—Criswell

We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives. And remember my friends; future events such as these will affect you in the future. And who could argue with that?

A primordial black hole orbiting our sun would explain our suns missing companion star.
Most stars have a companion.

Criswell was a regular on SoCal TV in the early to mid 50s. ‘Criswell Predicts’ was the name of his show. LA TV was full of ‘characters’ back in the day.

Wow, the basic premise of Edward Gibson's excellent space novel "
Reach" is coming true? Well, minus the intelligence in the black hole, I hope.

“Therefore, the power radiated by a typical PBH alone is minuscule, which makes it hard to detect.”
Shoot a rocket with a transmitter at it, and see if it disappears when it gets to where the PBH is supposed to be?

There is a stranger possibility. String theory proposes 11 dimensions. Gravity is the weakest natural force because it extends into more dimensions than the electromagnetic force. Given this you could have a mass in one of those other dimensions influencing ours. In other words a ghost planet. Unlike a black hole you’d have a place of attraction but you’d have no problem moving through the center of mass. It would be as if you had a planet in place but the only thing experienced would be it’s gravitational pull.

He also had a column that ran in newspapers, including the "Hamden Advisor", a free classifieds newsoaoer in Connecticut in the seventies.
Oscar Madison made reference to him in an episode of the Odd Couple mocking someone saying something obvious. I used to read Criswell's columns. Nothing he predicted EVER came true. He could have done better telling people who would cover the football spread so we could bet against.

If it were a companion star, then it would have about 2 solar masses and it would be the center of the solar system - which I doubt. In order for a stellar remnant to become a black hole, its mass has to be considerably above the Chandrasekhar Limit. Maybe 2 solar masses is the minimum. That would translate to an original mass of anywhere between 10 and 25 solar masses - a white or blue star, which would have a much shorter lifetime in the main sequence than our Class G yellow dwarf. Less than that, it turns into a neutron star. Ending up as a black hole or neutron star tends to be a very violent end, with a nebula being a calling card of such demise.
