I find this a very interesting post. I have herd about this theory before, but not to this depth. Every time I read this article, it intrigues me more and more. All of these studies that scientists have done give too much evidence to turn this away as fake. I am going to look further into this matter because this article has stimulated my thought process.
This is a very interesting article. It would be so cool if their theory was right, or partially right. I see how it could just be a theory they made up to get reasons for other theories or unexplained events. Also, all of the evidence they have is just saying, that it would make other things make more sense. I would like to look more into this subject and see if anybody has found some different kind of evidence.
This is such a cool article. I have always thought about if their is life somewhere else. These scientists all have a lot of evidence for this, so I can't think of this as fake. This seems is a very interesting post, and I want to look into this some more.
I find this fascinating, but I don't know if it is right. Remember, it is just a theory. I also don't understand how Einstein figured all those things out, like general relativity and how singularities take up no space... Einstein might have been wrong, because a new article I found says there might be a particle that traveled faster than the speed of light. Anyway, this whole thing is really cool, even though it probably will be proven wrong in 10 years.
You know how there's usually jets of light and energy streaming out from the poles of some black holes? The law e=mc^2 says that it is possible to transfer energy to mass and vice versa. Maybe black holes convert mass into energy or energy into mass.
This is really strange but also interesting. It would be amazing if their theory was right. Maybe in a century or something we will have developed a vehicle that will be able to get through black holes and see what is on the other side.
No one can know what goes on way out there, but I have also heard many theories about black holes. Many theories have suggested that as black holes have an infinite density, it makes a hole in space-time, a concept that is very hard to understand. If you get too near a black hole, you drop in that hole forever, with no way of getting back. However, one piece of crucial information that this theory has missed, is that what is beyond that? No one knows.
Also, I don't think anyone would be brave enough to intentionally go into a black hole to see what would be on the other side. Even if they had a strong belief that they would stay alive, even they wouldn't be sure they could get back. As Molly said, I think scientists will develop a vehicle that can go through a black hole without losing connection to the present universe. However, I think that time that they figure out how to create a vehicle with these abilities will be sooner than a century.
Coming off of what Ethan said, perhaps on the other side of the black hole there is a universe of just pure energy. Also, if this is not true, perhaps an alternate universe opposite of the black hole is where extraterrestrials come from. Really, no one knows. I have still been looking into space-time to see if I can understand it any better. If I can, I can probably use that information to obtain my opinion of black holes.
I'd say that this is very interesting, but it's just a theory. I think that when it has proof to back it up, it will be much more interesting. Also, if our universe was created by a parent universe, that means the same climate, surroundings, life, and ground might be in that universe too! That means that humans (or earlier or later evolutions of humans) might live there!
I have been wondering about this theory for many years. The universe had to start somewhere. The beginning of time could not have started with a planet. Something had to form that planet. I believe that the answer to that question is a black hole.
Also, another question I must ask is; When did time start?
This article is very interesting. I have heard rumors about thing like this before, but I didn't really think it was real. Now that I have read this article, I kind of think that it might be real. I think it would be really interesting if this was actually real. That would be amazing!
This is so cool, and I do partially believe in this theory. However, I don't think that every black hole is a wormhole. I wish there was more information on this theory, though.
I can't believe that our universe could be inside another universe.
This is a very interesting new theory and it makes sense. I wonder if something could go into the white whole and come out of the black hole. Since it has been proven that there are no aliens that live in our solar system, that could be the answer of how they get around our planet, because of all of the proclaimed UFO sightings.
Here comes another great blog. This idea is so interesting, but if we could, in truth, make a wormhole, we would have to stop it from snapping shut. Phantom energy has an anti-gravitational energy force so powerful, that it could actually rip the universe apart. Or, it could be used to open a wormhole. Wink Wink Nudge Nudge.
