re: Black holes do not exist and the Big Bang Theory is wrong, claims scientist

quote:

The best evidence for the black holes, in particular the super massive black holes at the center of galaxies is the speed of stars near the center of galaxies, and the lack of a light source. Generally anything in the universe that has mass (i.e., gravity) associated with it, also emits or reflects light. The center of our own galaxy and others has noticeable dark spot that also accelrates the surrounding stars far more than could be accounted for without a large mass.

or a different energy that is unknown to us at this point. It could even be described by elements we don't understand yet.

I'll say this, if you applied the same standards to a black hole as some people apply to God, they wouldn't believe in them

How exactly would one take a picture of a black hole?

This study is interesting. People accept certain hypotheses in astrophysics as fact that are far from being proven.

---

They actually know "black holes" exist because there will be planets orbiting what looks like nothing. There is an obvious gravitational relationship between these planets and another entity but we cannot see them as visable light.

I do believe we can see them using an infrared lens, but Im not 100% sure on that.

Here is a link to all sorts of pictures from space agencies like NASA of black holes.

People are in way over their head in this thread.

Daily Mail link baiting

here is a reason for that

they use a gossipy click bait title

and people post it to message boards

and some people freak out

and then we learn more about the actual study...and people stop freaking out

They do it all the time for climate change articles.

There is plenty of circumstantial evidence.

True, but to accept the theory as fact as so many do is misguided. As someone else already pointed out, even Hawking, who developed the current theory of black holes, no longer thinks they exist as he postulated. The theory to explain the circumstantial evidence will likely change drastically over the next 50 years.

And just so you know, he may be famous, but his work since graduate school has been mostly shite.

Are you really claiming to be smarter than Stephen Hawking?


No wait, that's not enough. Here....

I have a physics degree and still don't pretend to understand half of what's going on. Yet some people here...
