Have you ever wondered about what a black hole is? I was wondering if it could be a solid object. Like a neutron star, only it has gravity. Objects don't get sucked it, but rather broken apart and fit on top of each other atom by atom. And with the gravity even pulling in light, it would appear black.
Is this a possibility?

Considering some of the major holes in it;

- the unexplained superluminal expansion of space early on
- the missing dark matter and dark energy
- the lack of explanation as to why the universe is accelerating apart

The big bang has some compelling evidence in it's favor no doubt, but science progresses by disproving things, not by confirming them. The successful prediction of CMBR was a test the big bang passed that allowed it to stay, not a finish line that proved it true. We can imagine other black body style theories that could result in the same CMBR. Red shift seemed to be anothe passed test, until we discovered acceleration. As a result, it is now a failed test. The big bang should have been seriously reconsidered the day that was discovered.

With these fundamental known major flaws, is it appropriate to downgrade the big bang from theory back to hypothesis? Is the widespread acceptance of a seriously flawed theory a raodblock to investigation?

I'll ask my college professor in my astronomy class tonight about this. My first class tonight. The apparent absence of shadows where shadows were expected to be is raising new questions about the faint glow of microwave radiation once hailed as proof that the universe was created by a Big Bang.

How would you feel if our planet Earth & all life wasn't created by the Big Bang, but by creation? Let's hear your intergalactic response & thoughts.

It's really frustrating to me that now there are only eight planets in the solar system. I just graduated from high school, and my little brother now has to "unlearn" the old way of memorizing the planets. What's "My Very Eager Mother Just Serving Us Now?"

I want to thank everybody who answered my nebula question. No wonder I couldn't find the name of earth's nebula on Google. No, I wasn't confusing nebula with anything else... I swear!

Where does space and all the galaxys end and what is on the other side.
I know we would never get there in any life time but is space part of something bigger or are we all and everthing in a bubble

They say that 96% of the Universe matter is missing because Stars on the edge of galaxies does not reduce in acceleration like planets in our Solar System does. Then they created this bolony dark energy and dark matter that no one can see or measure!

But you don't even have to go as far as Einstein. Newton's law already explains this - Follow me:
F = - G(m1*m2)/r^2, right!

Newton's law says that:
"If r changes proportionally very little during an object's travel – such as an object falling near the surface of the earth – then the acceleration due to gravity appears very nearly constant". and "If m1 is negligible compared to m2, small masses would have approximately the same acceleration".

Therefore, assuming there's a black hole on the center of the galaxy, it will make the Star's mass negligible since the black hole density is infinite at the singularity. Therefore: acceleration is constant. No need of dark stuff :-)

Since I'm not nearly smart as those guys, What am I missing?
