      Imagine being in a solitary solar system in the Bootes void, where the entire night sky would just be black. No stars at all, no indication that there is anything beyond your solar system. Your civilization would probably be in space before you could think to make telescopes powerful enough to detect other far away clusters.

    Maybe this is ignoring Occam's Razor...IF the star systems are hypervelocity, and will eventually escape the galaxy: WHY ASSUME they didn't originate from outside the galaxy (in intergalactic medium)?
    SURE the interstellar space is mostly empty (seems to be) in our galaxy, so the rogue star could get pulled into the galaxy, NOT INTERACT w/ any stars and escape out the other side w/ or w/o making an 'approach of the SMBH.
    BUT the rogue star could also transit through our galaxy, interact gravitationally with a few dozen stars along its path (so zig-zag along its 'galactic transit' path), then escape back outside the galaxy.
    ALL this makes more sense, and would seem to be way more probable.

      Because if they were from outside, there'd generally be a similar number of star velocity vectors going inwards towards the core and outwards. But what we see is all of the hypervelocity stars coming out of the nucleus. It's statistically very unlikely we just randomly have a case where they are all coming out of the nucleus in your idea that the hyper speed stars are just everywhere

    • @ProfessorJayTee
      @ProfessorJayTee 4 часа назад

      Numbers aren't on your side. There isn't much matter in "intergalactic medium" by both definition and observation. While there are small gas clouds, few stars would be able to form out there. A tiny number. An even tinier percentage of that tiny number would be be accelerated to the high speeds seen-by the exact same mechanisms suggested here. So there may be a few! But far too many hypervelocity rogue stars have already been seen for that to be the usual case. Occam frowns at your idea being "the simplest."
