Black Hole Detonation Theory: Exploring Possibilities

[1337goose]

I've seen many threads similar, but none addressing this particular theory.

I don't know when I came up with this, but I know that a friend of mine, and at least one member of XKCD forums did as well. So...

The idea is that there are one or more universes outside our own, though pretty much identical in all respects (same laws of physics, etc), and that these universes have black holes. Once these black holes absorb so much matter, crossing a specific density threshold, they burst, releasing all of their matter into the universe that said black holes are in.

I know this cyclical, but perhaps the precise limit of a black hole's capacity is all of the matter in the universe, as only said matter would be spread out after the black hole ruptured.

Continuing on this idea, perhaps our "universe" is not separate from the universes existing before or after it, but are in reality occupying the same space-time. Maybe if the black hole consumes all of the matter in the universe (as stated above, its threshold capacity), it bursts (the Big Bang), and the matter in our "universe" is superimposed onto the space-time of the previous "universe."

Any thoughts?

Thank you for sharing your theory on the existence of multiple universes with black holes. This is definitely an interesting idea that has been explored by many scientists and theorists. While we cannot confirm or deny the existence of other universes, there are some aspects of your theory that I would like to address.

Firstly, the idea of multiple universes with identical laws of physics is a popular concept in theoretical physics. This is known as the "multiverse" theory, where there are an infinite number of parallel universes with different physical constants and laws. However, it is important to note that there is currently no concrete evidence to support this theory.

Regarding the role of black holes in this theory, it is true that black holes are known to have an immense gravitational pull that can absorb matter. However, the concept of a black hole bursting and releasing all of its matter into another universe is not supported by current scientific understanding. In fact, black holes are known to have a point of no return, called the event horizon, beyond which nothing can escape, not even light.

Additionally, the idea that our universe is not separate from previous or future universes and that they are all occupying the same space-time is an intriguing concept. However, it is important to note that our current understanding of space-time and the Big Bang suggests that our universe began as a singularity and expanded from there. The idea of superimposing universes onto each other would require a significant shift in our understanding of the universe.

Overall, your theory is thought-provoking and raises some interesting questions. However, it is important to approach these ideas with a critical and scientific mindset, and to continue exploring and researching to gain a deeper understanding of our universe. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
