Black holes keep ‘burping up’ stars they destroyed years earlier, and astronomers don’t know why::Years after ripping stars to shreds, 24 black holes suddenly flared up with radio waves in inexplicable ‘burping’ bouts. Half of all star-killing black holes may experience the same.

those are the bad stars that are not wanted for the next universe that starts at the end of the black hole. our sun is definitely getting burped up in the future. :D

Ok so black holes are just teleporters to other dimensions right?!

It’s a one way teleporter to a single dimension, because you’re entire mass will be a single imperceptible point.

I equate it to a can of spray cheese. Small hole, puffy cheese.

I thought you were making this up, but apparently there actually is “cheese” that comes in a spray bottle.

What the wiki article does not explain, is why.

But it’s not a single point though, because blackholes with a different mass have different sizes, so it’s more like a “maximum density” that can exist in this universe…

Time slows down as the mass approaches the center, so it just can never reach it. It’s stuck in time dilation approaching infinity.

Size and density have non-standard definitions in this context.

It’s an oversimplification, but something with the mass of say, a human, will be crushed into a very very very very tiny space. A much smaller space than 0.1mm radius, which would hold Earth’s moon’s mass of 7.342×10^22 kg.

As far as i know the Mass of the black Hole is concentrated in the Center (singularity). But it is surouded by its schwarzschild Radius. Anything that enters it cant escape.

That’s what the current understanding of physics says. But given that there are singularities that come out of the math, all that really means is we don’t actually know what happens inside a black hole.

It’ll teleport you from the third dimension to the first dimension.

Everything is cyclical, Every action has an equal opposite reaction. Birth/Creation - Life/Consumption - Death/Collapse.

Given what we know of black holes the most recent attribute to be learnt is that whatever is consumed by a black hole the information/data remains on the surface of the black hole. So does that mean when it burps out a star is it the reverse of the initial consumption of that star with the exact same information/data it initially had.

Now apply the same logic to a theoretical white hole and we begin to see more potential for a theoretical worrm hole

Gee, Rick, I-I think they prefer to be called African-American holes now, y’know?
