@ shadow27 - 25.09.23 - 02:09pm Maybe it fuels itself, or the destruction of another section of space fuels this one. I was thinking more like an endlessly repeating cycle. If, say long, long into the distant future, all the matter in this universe is eventually consumed by black holes, and all the black holes eventually merge together into one singular colossal mega-giant black hole, then the whole process begins again as matter ejected from the white hole on the other side. |

The annual Orionid meteor shower is at peak intensity tonight, caused by the earth passing through the dust trail left behind by Halley's comet. Surprisingly the skies have unexpectedly cleared up here but I haven't seen any yet.

@ obi_jon - 25.09.23 - 10:31am That's what they taught us at school and was the general consensus before Hawking radiation became known. What follows is simply the clearest and easily understandable explanation of what Black Holes are and what the latest thinking on Hawking radiation implies. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you... Prof. Brian Cox |

Something may be very wrong with our current understanding of the universe. A strange new far-distant object has been observed by the JWST that acts like a massive black hole except that it appears to be emitting regular ''flashes'' of energy, such massive amounts of energy in fact that the data is still being checked to make sure it's accurate and not some sort of weird anomaly or a fault that is causing false readings. If the data is confirmed it may well be the most energetic object ever observed in the universe and may utterly change everything we know, as the emissions appear to break the known laws of physics by travelling at approx 6x the speed of light.

I have no clue, I mean how do they even measure that? What in the actual fk is going on, it's hurting my head just thinking about it. |

I thought they had seen these superluminal jets before?? |

@ shadow27 - 23.11.23 - 01:36am I thought they had seen these superluminal jets before?? Yeah, they've seen relativistic jets from quasars and magnetars before, so called because they appear to contradict Einstein's theory of relativity and seemingly mess about with the space and time around them in ways that aren't really understood yet.. but this one seems to be a completely new category of object that had never been observed before. Like a giant blackhole that is somehow releasing energy in massive but only occasionally detectable flashes, unlike a quasar which are permanently detectable and emit their energy jets constantly like big spinny cosmic lighthouses. |

Like I said, the new object has only recently been observed by the JWST and hasn't even been confirmed as being real yet, there could still be other explanations and it may not actually be what they currently think it might be, that's as far as they've got with it really. One alternative theory is that it might be a Blackhole and a Quasar, or rather a Blackhole that sw*llowed up a Quaser or is still in the process of doing so. |

Basically where at the ''Hey you guys, look at this weird new thing we've spotted!'' and everyone is like ''Hang on a minute, that can't be right! Wtf is going on here?'' stage.
