We can't see black holes, we can only find
circumstantial evidence of them.
They violate the physics that predicts them.
They may even be hairy.
So, do they actually exist?
So, I will tell you that right now in modern
physics we have no idea what is going on inside
the heart of a black hole, whether black holes
in a true sense really exist at all.
But, the wonderful thing is that physics is
now taking us down paths that we would never
have imagined before.
If you ask me what I believe, I'd have to
tell you that I don't believe in black holes,
I believe in something which behaves like
black holes.
It could be that all the objects in our universe
that we currently identify as black holes
aren't really black holes, but, if I were
to bet I would bet on black holes.
I think they're the simplest explanation,
yep, they have a lot of problems that we have
to resolve, but I do, I believe in black holes.
Whatever it is that we're seeing, it smells
like a black hole, walks like a black hole,
it quacks like a black hole.
It's a black hole.
Right now, black holes are the best explanation
for what we see out there, but, if we can
find a way to unify our theories, we might
finally prove they exist and discover a whole
lot more about how our universe works.
