"The message of this lecture is that black holes ain't as black as they are painted. They are not the eternal prisons they were once thought," Hawking told a meeting of experts, according to the New Scientist. "Things can get out of a black hole both on the outside and possibly come out in another universe."
thoughts?
not a new theory of is, if I recall correctly. I remember a lecture where he talked about how information can escape mini black holes when they collapse on themselves. But idk man, I saw that movie Event Horizon so I'm not cool with sending shit into black holes.

Hawking the popcultural wigwam for general deep thought.
Ol dude 'Hoofter or whatever had this theory prior, or something.
The real questions is,
how did Redmayne win that oscar?

the millennium falcon when it goes into hyper speed can breach the space time continuum.
but if Chewbacca doesn't wear a seat belt he get suxd into the black hole and come out covering Kenny g tracks on tatooine
uh-oh

i think people are dumb and just don't get what a black hole is
its not a hole. its not a tunnel to another universe
its just a super dense piece of space metal/rock we havent discovered yet because discovering it is DEATH
the same way a star has a mass gravitational pull on everything so do black holes but times a billion. i really think if light could escape a black hole we would just see a planet type object/rock
but since light doesnt escape it seems like some black vortex void thing because its pulling everything into it so firmly that nothing escapes back out for our dumb human eyes to comprehend
i feel like someone has had to have come to this conclusion before but every time i hear scientists talk they just sound like dummies and talk about wormholes and mythical white holes that DON'T EXIST
like yo if the universe started as a tiny little ball/on the head of pin, and then exploded outward, and everything that exists in the universe was in that tiny ball
black holes are probably whatever matter that held it all and compressed it down to that size with there denseness/gravity
and right now since shit moves in cycles the black holes suck up everything near them, and eventually probably suck up EVERYTHING and then eachother and when all the black holes coalesce back together the force of them holding the ALL probably erupts and boom
BIG BANG
i just figured this shit out while being sleep deprived and having the ability to talk, walk, and type
stephen hawking can suck my dick

event horizon a dope movie though
bumping above the boring drunken Bodey YouTube threads posted last night tbc
I still hold that movie as THE scariest movie I've ever seen. it legit scared the shit out of me as a kid, and since then it's held a psychological grip on me.
it also mindfucked me cuz I only knew Sam Neil as Dr. Alan Grant from Jurassic Park.

Loooool
No one knows the truth about Black Holes because we can't even see them. The only way they are observed are thru the forces they exert on the things around them. Just about all the information on them are THEORIES, because we do not know for a fact.
White Holes are THEORETICAL, as is Warp Speed, as is the idea of a Multiverse, as are Worm Holes. All of these are theoretically possible, but that's it.
Those Aliens tho....
I was live streaming a once in a lifetime lecture from the Wigwam, but I had to piss real bad, so I was in a zugzwang

lol this nigga right here man

forreal though, there's a common misconception that theories imply lack of knowledge. really, they are proof of how much we DO know about things. we fill in observational gaps with math-based models. we know a good deal about black holes, just not nearly as much as we don't know (which is why it's exciting to talk about the possibilities!).
sorry, teacher rant over. carry on
Gravity is theoretical. Magnetism is theoretical. Electricity is theoretical. Whats your point?
We can test all of these theories, that's the difference. We can't test theories of black holes because we aren't near one, nor would we be able to if we were (theoretically lol). We can observe how they interact with the surrounding environment, but we cannot run any tests like we can with gravity, electricity, etc.

cause you be turned on by this type of nerd shit, fucknigga
hence the RB name change to DARK MATTER
you skinny 6'2" 145lb big beaked belly button pusher cock sucker!

Wish I was 6'2, b...lmao.
This shit is interesting, though, don't lie. THERE IS SO MUCH OUT THERE.

So yo, who thinks we can bend space/time and travel at Warp Speed? Or better yet, who thinks we will find Extraterrestrial life, whether it be microbial or intelligent, in the next 10 years?

I am really hopeful about the chance of microbial life on one of Jupiter's Moons (maybe Europa)...or Saturn's.
at one point we thought we found microbial life on a damp moon in the inner solar system. turned out, the telescope was actually facing Ireland, and it was just Witty's weiner =/

Can't directly examine any subatomic particles in studying quantum physics. It doesn't make the results any less valid. Theoretical means relating to the principles at play as opposed to studying their applications. Literally every scientific/chemical/physical/astronomical discovery is based on how things interact. That's called evidence. We can directly test for gravity. We still can't explain why it exists and it's literally everywhere. We're swimming in evidence and it's less explained than something so far away that humans couldnt reach it in 50 generations. Most people accept Newton's gravitational model and it's literally proven wrong, but that's not strange
Most people are just afraid of foreign ideas because they can't pretend to understand them at the same depth as something right at their fingertips

agreed up until this point; we're pretty damn good at pretending to understand things.

There are many, surprisingly, especially Chinese people.
Where I live, over the last 5 years or so, there has been a huge influx of Chinese people, for reasons which are currently unclear to me.

shit not human, bruh
where you come from?
I mean everyone KNOWS there's other life outside of earth
lets be real here

I think the word 'theory' has a different connotation to non-science folk than it does to science folk.
In science terms, a theory has already gone through a lot of tested variables - and worked - before it's even been classified as a theory.
