I think that what was meant in the article is that the area of the event horizon of a black hole can’t shrink unless mass is lost. The theory is that mass can be lost through Hawking Radiation which would reduce mass over long periods of time. This while a black hole is probably gaining mass through attracting matter into the event horizon.
Scientists Confirm Stephen Hawking’s 50-Year-Old Theory About Black Holes>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
He was writing about Barack Obama.
I wonder how much guess work and wild unproven theories are involved in their “confirmation”.
Can we resurrect Hawking and give him the Nobel Prize?
Black holes are RACIST!!
Haven't you heard?
They completely ignore the most interesting implication, at least for me, which is that it’s possible for information to escape from the event horizon.
I wanna go surfing on the bitchen 1000 ft. waves of aqueous planets within the event horizon for 2 minutes to wait out Commiela’s term.
I believe such revelations from black holes will lead us to the ability to travel faster than the speed of light when man finds the earth no longer habitable.
We have two conflicting "Laws" from Steven Hawking. One says that black hole event horizons can only increase, the other that says they will decrease. That's not unusual in theories about things we don't fully understand, but it at least deserves a bit more discussion in an article that headlines the fact that only increases can occur.
