Hawking paradox?

Question

Hawking paradox?
Has any one seen the show on the discovery chanel pertaining to stephen hawking and the idea that black holes dont destroy matter but really just hold matter inside?

if this is true how could we obtain this information and why is stored in the black hole originaly.

also in the show is stated that we are only one of many different multiversis and dimensions any thoughts of this...

sorry for the spelling errors.

Answer 1

This concept looks like the open universe of Einstein to me. It is a logical extrapolation of our historical cocept of the universe. Historically, we first thought that the earth is the center of the universe (geocentric). Then we thought that it is the sun (heliocentric). Then we discovered that we are not the only solar system. There are other systems in our Milky Way. Then we discovered that the Milky Way is not alone. There are millions of galaxies around our own. Now we think that the universe is expanding and we are the center in such a way that all heavenly bodies are receding from us. Since experience tells that universal conceit always proved to be wrong, we are suspecting that our being the Bigbang center is again an illusion. Scientists are proposing that one will always experience the same illusion from any point in the universe, and that our expanding universe is just one location in a larger universe. This great and boundless universe may have expanding portions like our own and sinking portions in other parts, like the pressure difference between the inside of an oxygen tank and the surrounding atmosphere outside.

My understanding is that at the moment, there is no way we can get accurate information on the black holes, because our senses are 3 dimensional. Our understanding has been enhanced by the 4th dimension introduced by Einstein--time, but is not enough.

My belief is in line with the show you are referring to. The universe is multi-dimensional and boundless. Our expanding universe is only part of it. Let me look at it this way. The stars are like the water supply in in a pool, and the black hole is like the outlet to the drain. Our universe is inside the pool. There are countless of universes outside the pool.

Answer 2

I can't help with the first part, but I do agree with the second part. Interestingly, because of how I view multiple universes, I disagree with the idea that black holes would hold the matter that they collect. I feel more that they are a conduit than a gargabe bin.

To me a black hole and a big bang could easily be the same event viewed from different sides. What a black hole (or what appears to us as multiple black holes) collects could be spewed into the creation of a different universe.

Both black holes and big bangs are singularities - in other words, they are points that are undefined in our current understanding. Both approach infinite mass and energy. If we simply allow the possibility that the universe that we live in is not the entirety of all things, then it becomes entirely possible that these two phenomena are closely related and the black hole is simply the conduit through which matter and energy are channeled into a different universe.

That's my story and I'm stickin to it

Answer 3

There may be a way to obtain information from the black hole, by the process of Hawking radiation. This kind of radiation is a quantum mechanical process in which black holes radiate energy, and this radiation gradually accelerates over time. But how is all this information saved when all thats left of the black hole is hot radiation? This is called the "Black Hole Information Paradox," and is believed to be solved when a theory of quantum gravity (a theory that unifies quantum physics with general relativity) is formulated. Why does the information get trapped there? Well, since a black hole's escape velocity is faster than the speed of light, not even light can escape such an intense gravitational pull, so any information to stray close enough could become trapped.
