It’s apparently black hole week. I will therefore write about black holes.
Given the nature of the potential energy field (better known as spacetime), it has a maximum energy density at the top, and zero energy at the bottom. You can’t have less than nothing. Nature abhors debts.
Therefore, a black hole is a hollow shell of maximal energy density surrounding… nothing. Nothing at all. A region with zero potential energy. The event horizon contains all the energy (and information) of a black hole. It gets slightly larger every time another particle falls onto it with a splat.

You see, the potential energy field contains all the energy that every other field and particle draws from. So, when there is no potential energy left in a region, nothing can enter that region. There simply isn’t any energy for anything else to exist in that place. (Field gradients don’t count, because they aren’t physical, and their energy budget has already been paid.)
Therefore, a black hole is not an infinitely small singularity (which indicates a problem with the science), but rather a discontinuity. It’s crunchy on the outside, hollow on the inside.
By the way, this model also allows black holes to move and spin according to existing physical laws. They are maximally weird, but no weirder.
This is followable for my pea brain.
ReplyDeleteDid you nuke yer Gab site? It was there, but zeroed out, on my way here.
Nope. I just don't have much to say. It's not as much fen since they went pay to play. Most of the people I followed dumped it.
DeleteWouldn't it be ironic if in the future, after years of building larger space telescopes, they discover our entire known universe is in orbit around a giant black hole?
