More Blackholes Discovered...

Lispy writes "Space.com has this story about the surprising finding of missing blackholes. There might be up to five times more blackholes in space than previously estimated. "The European Southern Observatory in Munich, Germany reports that the black holes were all in "active" galaxies, meaning they were actively consuming large quantities of galactic matter.""

    The Zen Buddhist in me would love it if the expansionary universe became a cyclical big bang/crunch.
