Read the article. Just for kicks and a change from other things dominating the news.

Saw something to this effect on ‘How The Universe Works’ on Science channel. Interesting stuff.

Down in the article:

“...previously discovered evidence of primeval supermassive black holes...”

Which is it? MAY or EVIDENCE...

I’ll wait for “Ancient Aliens” on History, to tell me the “truth”. LOL.

Happy to take the heat. At least it’s letting FReepers vent without ripping into each other over the WuFlu.

Blazars are a unique type of RL AGN that spit out two narrow jets of “relativistic” (near-light-speed) matter in opposite directions.

Well, if it spit them out in only one direction it would
push them up to relativistic speeds and who knows what
would happen then.

Good article, though; thanks for posting it. I wish I understood half of it. Heh.

I saw the title and that’s the first thing I thought.

Good diversion.

So black holes existed at the dawn of time, but it can’t be the dawn of time because if this article is accurate then how were the black holes formed and when....

It’s one of those questions than can’t ever be answered, because it would imply that at one time nothing existed and then things began to form....

You’re all racists. Why does the color black get all the bad stuff? Why aren’t they called white holes or yellow holes or something?
