No, I believe they are different, though related.

Ottawa is a ‘black hole’, which sucks vast quantities of wealth out of the economy, and any common sense from almost anyone who is elected and serves there. Washington, District of Corruption, is similar.

Dark matter is what seems to infect the brains of the vast majority of those who work in these cities.

JMO.

I like where this is headed rather than some unknown, unexplained matter.

Proposing an alternative model for how the universe came to be, a team of astrophysicists suggests that all black holes—from those as tiny as a pinhead to those covering billions of miles—were created instantly after the Big Bang and account for all dark matter.

There's that pesky word again. Nothing can not create.

May be the black holes are affecting the sinking dollar.

Hopefully Elon won’t run into any unexpected potholes on his journey to Mars.

What a neat little hypothetical Jedi-Mind trick.......... All the Dark Matter is hidden in the Black Holes! ..... Now why didn’t I think of that?!?!?!?!.................

The science is settled, er, rattled.

Thanks for posting this.

I just read it a few minutes ago at SciTechDaily.com.

I started to do a FR Search before posting it myself, glanced down, and there was your post!

That will be amazing if this theory is correct.

I wonder if Dark Energy fits into this theory, too?

Washington, District of Corruption, is similar.

Ottawa is a convent/monastery compared to the District of Criminals. At least the Creatures of Ottawa tell you up front they are taking your money. The Swamp Creatures of DC tell you they are taking someone else's........................

Hmmmm. . .we are supposed to believe there was nothing then BANG, we have a universe. . .but are told that we can’t believe there was nothing and God created the universe.

We are told nothing created something, while at the same time we are told there is no God that created something out of nothing.

Science. . .got to love it. . .especially since Saint Fauci is science.

“I like where this is headed rather than some unknown, unexplained matter.”

Me too, I have never been a fan of the current theory/model which seems to need tweaking every time a new satellite is launched observing in some different spectrum. Also the same for particle physics which changes every time they run a super collider.

In the popular accounts of dark matter than I’ve read and seen, black holes are often mentioned as possible explanations, but quickly dismissed without any ado, tossed into the reject bin along with neutrinos, dust clouds and such. Casual rejections like that are often signs of sloppy science, and fresh opportunities for good science.

The Big Bang was result of a single massive gargantuan black hole which had swallowed all the matter in universe. Then that hole began compressing itself due to gravitational forces. When the forces became unbearable, it exploded with a big bang. This cycle will repeat for ever.

Will be at least 3 months before Webb becomes operational, if it succeeds unfolding in the coming month.
