      absolutely right. I share your point of view, today on the 22nd of November 2021! We need a whole Armada of scientists to bring knowledge to the people. But, considering the pace with which climate change accelerates, ... I am afraid that future generations will not be as lucky as we are!

    One of the things that happens according to Einstein's theory is that Time and Space flip spots. So in our understanding of the universe Time only flows one direction. In Space we have the option of moving about in space. But in a blackhole, once you are past the event horizon the only way you can "move" is through time. Space only flows one direction and that's towards the singularity. If that makes sense. So in a way you could see move in time into the future and see what will happen at the end, but your destiny is already decided you're stuck and you can't get out no matter what.

      Sound is just propagating vibrations of various forms of matter, so the energy would be sucked into a black hole along with the matter conducting it.

      @dancostello7956 8 лет назад

      omar kayali sound is essentially atoms and molecules knocking together and passing on vibrations, so yes in a way a black hole would absorb sound because the black hole would absorb matter, meaning vibrations wouldn't occur and wouldn't be able to be passed on.

The very second I learned that this might be the case with many stars the whole idea about the universe being heavier that it looks like came into a new light, perhaps we are surrounded by invisible dead stars and not exotic dark matter. herpa derp?

And our civilization exists in this precise moment, when the light of many stars are reaching our tiny planet.

    I just wondered whether the principles involved in an event horizon/black hole are similar to the events that occur just before and during the onset of a Tornado on Earth. After seeing on the news about the recent tornados in USA, the explanation of how they occur made me think of this explanation by Brian Cox of what happens in space. There are storms on other planets too (eg Jupiter) do we need to understand more about our universe to understand why things on Earth occur too.

    Calling black holes violent is simply prejudice. He has never met one so how could he know. I'm sure that they're not all bad. I once thought that all people from Manchester were violent. And it's simply not true. I met this old lady once who was born in Manchester but grew up in London. She was not violent. Well perhaps a little bit.
