Black holes are one of the strangest objects in the universe, preventing anything from escaping their grip – even light.
Now astronomers have discovered something even more peculiar about these enigmatic objects; they are aligned with each other over distances stretching billions of light-years

Pretty interesting stuff. I'm just not sure what it means exactly. Just goes to show there is soooo much about this universe we don't yet understand.

Theoretical astrophysics makes my head hurt. No way I can wrap my mind around it.

quote:

The new VLT results indicate that the rotation axes of the quasars tend to be parallel to the large-scale structures in which they find themselves.
So, if the quasars are in a long filament then the spins of the central black holes will point along the filament.

they are portals to each other. Black holes are wormholes.

If it ever turns out that they are shortcuts to parts of the universe... then I told you so.

Tough to argue with this logic.

Why would there be? It serves no purpose in nature.

I don't think there's anything in this world i would rather have than being able to be completely knowledgeable of the entire universe and its' workings.
I'd give my life for that.
It sucks that i will live and die on this earth with knowing next to nothing about the vast universe we live in.

Maybe black holes are the center of the universe and that is why their gravity is so strong.

Meanwhile... as we study these things an alien race is using them as portals all over the universe.

It's so obvious! Interstellar highway mannnnn
