    Black holes

    Fact or a convenient place to put all the difficult physics equations that don't make sense?
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

    Is there any room in there for this thread as well?

      Bugger... this was never meant to be in 'Business / Contracts', that'll teach me from straying.

          Intuitively, the idea that mass can take up no space is silly. This being the case, Einsteins equations would not break down because 'r' could never reach zero.

          As long as r is smaller than the event horizon, there is no way of telling...

            Great. The CUK geniuses take on Physics. The world is agog.

            Hard Brexit now!

              Black holes are just a convenient way for Brown to raise taxes.

                They are certainly a tax haven

                  We'll soon know when the chaps at CERN start churning them out of the collider.

                  It'll sure help bring Europe 'closer together'

                    How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
