    Compacting Matter in a Black Hole Singularity: Is It Pure Entropy?

    Information that is ordered can be compacted down to a single repeating unit i,e; 110055110055110055110055 down to just 110055 and this meant that it must have been highly ordered to be compacted down this far. So could it be that matter is also highly ordered somehow and it can be compacted...

    If everything is relative to each other in this universe
