Doubting the Existence of Black Holes

Posted by chrisd on from the good-for-physics-bad-for-speakers dept.

The Good Reverend writes: "It seems that there's a growing movement that doubts the existence of black holes, going against most of the rest of astrophysics. They suggest the existence of gravastars, "star-size agglomerations of "wavelike" substance" (space-time fabric, if you will). Different scientists claim to have created the "wavelike substance" in a lab, called Bose-Einstein condensates." I understand gravastars taste terrific with cream cheese and red onion.

    Sounds to me like they're just quabbling over the name of the "black hole". These are our best and brightest?
    And I'm sure it sounds to them like everyone here is just squabbling over the name 'Windows'.
