Black Holes Disputed

JScarpace writes: "Researchers at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico and at the University of South Carolina in Columbia have proposed the existence of "gravastars" which are bubbles of superdense matter. If they are correct, the idea of a black hole with a singularity at the center may be just a fantasy."

    The fact that it is a black hole doesn't automagically make it a super-dense singularity. I, too, have a black hole, however mine expels matter instead of sucking it up.

    Quite a sight, I might add. If there is enough interest I might even post a video.

    What do you say?

    Jeez... don't get all pissy about it. It's not like a site "important for physicists in their daily work" gets swamped by hits from the common herd very often.

    Big bang, time travel, black holes, quantum computing, etc... It's all Star Trek voodoo physics without any basis in reality, or even simple logic. We are being taken to the cleaners by a bunch of condescending, self-promoting pompous asses and con artists who have hijacked the science of physics.

    We, the public, who pays for all this worthless crap, are the real bosses. We want good science for our money. We are tired of being treated like we are too stupid to figure out that we are being duped. We have gotten rid of condescending priesthoods in the past and we will do so again. One day, we will wake up from our stupor and wipe that smirk off their faces. The writing is on the wall.
