Cambridge Professor and Cosmologist Stephen Hawking has a new fantastically insane theory. The English theoretical physicist announced in a lecture at Stockholm, Sweden, that the Black Hole is a gateway to another universe.
Currently, NASA defines Blackhole as a place in space with extreme gravity. The intensity of the force can pull in everything, including light, into a swirl of darkness. Matter of different mass may be squeezed into a tiny space. Black holes may appear upon the death of a star. Though, theoretically formed by humans, Black Holes are invisible to human eyes.
The current theories of physics contradict the existence of Black Hole. If energy cannot be created nor destroyed, then what happens to the things absorbed by the Black Hole?
According to Hawking, matter caught by the Black Hole face two possibilities. Either it is translated into a kind of hologram on the edge of the Black Hole, or it breaks out into an alternative universe. Hawking said, "The existence of alternative histories with Black Holes suggests this might be possible. The hole would need to be large and if it was rotating it might have a passage to another universe. But you couldn't come back to our universe. So although I'm keen on space flight, I'm not going to try that."
While Black Holes were previously conceived to be the end of a matter's existence, Hawking is arguing that Black Holes are not as black as they are painted. They are not the eternal prisons they were once thought. Things escape from a Black Hole and possibly come out in another universe.
Hawking is the Director of Research at Cambridge University's Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, The Guardian reported.
