This has just got to be Trump’s fault. Women and minorities will be most affected.

Is this because of global warming?

They’ve got no other tricks and will probably be scraping the barrel for scare tactics. Maybe they’ll pick up on this: ‘Black Hole: Due to Global Climate Change - and Trump!’

Everything REAL - in addition to all the things they invent - WILL be ‘Trump’s Fault’.

Pay no attention. Follow your own good sense.

24 years of observations of a billion year event is relevant?

Then we won't have to worry about global warming anymore.

EXACTLY! Now the Left will come up with some bogus ideas about how to spend money to avoid black holes*.

All good and well, thank you—but you missed my point.

I suspected as much for the period 2008 to 2016... The number of my missing socks increased sharply... A black hole was undoubtedly to blame...

"We have never seen anything like this in the 24 years we have studied the super-massive black hole," said Andrea Ghez, UCLA professor of physics and astronomy and a co-senior author of the research. ...It's usually a pretty quiet,....'

Hmmm... How many years has the black hole been in existence?

What does it matter, from a scientific point of view, that you dimwits "haven't seen anything like this"!

Then you magnify the sheer stupidity of your comments an order of magnitude when you utter/write the phrase: "It's usually pretty quiet..."

Anyone can play this game... So, my most recent estimate of the super-massive black holes life-span so far is 12.778365278 years old and I need more funding to study those early years and watch a super-massive black hole form and develop its dietary habits...

Forget Physical Review Letters... Watch for my results in Physical Review...

And given the light-distance, how long ago did that happen?

It has to be a democrat then, otherwise it would be giving away matter instead of sucking it in and giving nothing in return.
