Claire. Posted September 29, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Do Black Holes Die? There are some things in the universe that you simply can't escape. Death. Taxes. Black holes. If you time it right, you can even experience all three at once. Black holes are made out to be uncompromising monsters, roaming the galaxies, voraciously consuming anything in their path. And their name is rightly deserved: Once you fall in, once you cross the terminator line of the event horizon, you don't come out. Not even light can escape their clutches. But in movies, the scary monster has a weakness, and if black holes are the galactic monsters, then surely they have a vulnerability. Right?

Oh! suggested, as a possibility. He also mentioned something like humans not lasting 100 years. Once he or other physicists were saying they didn't exist, lets see I think now its a grey hole in that energy eventually makes it back out. So ... like at this moment HA! its a tentative Black Hole. Oh, article mentions quantum ALL BETS ARE OFF, specifically quantum field theory. Too mind boggling. Edited September 30, 2016 by MWoo7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see has made a statement like that, highly speculative I might mention, but he also theorised Hawking Radiation, which seems to indicate a solid mass that is depleted by exchanges. How do you fly through a solid mass of intense gravitational power and even survive? How do you not become part of the particle soup? I can come to terms with how one might use the gravitational effects of a black hole to bend space or change time, but punching a hole through it - how does that actually work? Wormholes bend spacetime, distorting it so badly that two distant ends might meet, but the "tunnel" through spacetime is infinitesimally small and does not allow matter to pass through it without pinching shut. Other Universes are unlikely to have the same properties as we do, so they may not even have "spacetime" as we know it, so how does that Twain meet? ETA Black holes are not eternal prisons, we have not thought that for some time. Hawking Radiation releases the material in a low entropy state, it is theorised they will be the last objects in the Universe and in about 10100 years, the last black hole will fizzle off it's last bit of Hawking Radiation. Then it is all over, nothing left in the Universe. Edited September 30, 2016 by psyche101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
