"Black holes are places where ordinary gravity has become so extreme that it overwhelms all other forces in the Universe. Once inside, nothing can escape a black hole's gravity — not even light."

Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny?
Qur'an 55:13

The first astronomer who calculated the existence of black hole as the centre of the milky-way galaxy won a price, I think it was one million dollars.The nearest star that orbiting it runs like 20 millions km per hour or something.

Fascinating find.

Well, quantum mechanics makes it possible for particles to escape after all...

Has everyone watched The Fabric of the Cosmos? It's a must see.

"Black holes are places where ordinary gravity has become so extreme that it overwhelms all other forces in the Universe. Once inside, nothing can escape a black hole's gravity — not even light."

²And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

³And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

⁴... and God divided the light from the darkness.

__________________________

In the beginning was a void...

sometimes I think perhaps we are the intruders... the light invades the dark... the void

and so sets up the opposing forces, one calling itself good and calling the other bad...

and to the void, shall we be returned one day?

Just some things I think about. Smile

Sometimes myths contain elements that by chance sound similar to what modern science has found out. The wonderful creation myth in Genesis even predates Judaism.

But all of this took 13.7 billion years, not six days. Besides, how do you define day before having a rotating planet.

I think myth, as you call it, is that knowing that we have inside of us that comes from the One who created us.
