I've seen on the net that some Astrophysicist think Black holes are an entire Universes within the area of the black hole...could be !

They say the parent universe would engender slightly different versions of physics in our universe than in the parent. So the parent might have the speed of light be 187,000 miles per second but ours clocks in at 186242. That kind of thing.

Originally posted by woadmanGeneral relativity is a good theory, in the sense that it predicts Newtons law of Gravity in the weak field limit and correctly accounts for a contribution to the precession of Mercury that would otherwise be unexplainable, as well as some other phenomena. Quantum mechanics is a good theory as it explains how electrons diffract, and gives Newton's laws of motion on macro-scopic scales.

Originally posted by DeepThoughtThere is the ongoing experiment to directly detect extra curled up dimensions: the inverse square gravity test, where you look for variances from the inverse square law of gravity but at extremely close distances. Right now I think they are showing no change in the IS law down to 100 microns but they are working to extend that to an even closer distance, 10 microns.

I know it's oversimplifying ... ... ... because of the billions of years between them.
Originally posted by blunderdog... will repeat again exactly the same way.
I know it's oversimplifying it a bit but I think black holes are drains, like a drain in a sink or bathtub. Einstein's general theory of relativity suggested that gravity is caused when something of incredible mass bends space and smaller objects roll around in that curved space. When the battle of the nuclear fusion vs. gravity eventually ends in favor o ...[text shortened]... tless times. We forget most of our previous lives because of the billions of years between them.
Originally posted by FabianFnasThen please explain quantum gravitation theory to me. What does it say? 🙂 As it is my information also comes from Hawking. He wrote a 2 books, perhaps more, those are the once I have read. I was 15 years old and who knows, perhaps I misunderstood, that happens quite often. I remember the "Hawking radiation" and his later proven wrong theory about mathematical foundations of the "big bang". But geniouses theories are sometimes only theories and often some of them do not stand the test of time. 🙂
Not according to quantum gravitation theory and Steven Hawking.
Originally posted by DeepThoughtIt's hard enough dealing with creationists missusing the word theory without scientists doing it as well.
