What of the possibility that dark energy prevents total gravitational collapse of black holes, and might also have helped avoid an actual singularity at the big bang?
An absolute gravitational singularity is a hypothetical point in space where the gravitational forces become infinitely strong and the laws of physics break down. It is often described as a point of infinite density and zero volume.
Absolute gravitational singularities are thought to form when a massive object, such as a star, collapses under the force of its own gravity. As the object's mass becomes more and more concentrated, the gravitational forces become stronger until they reach a point of infinite strength at the singularity.
No, absolute gravitational singularities have never been observed. They are purely theoretical and have not yet been confirmed by any experimental evidence.
It is currently not possible to directly detect absolute gravitational singularities. However, scientists can indirectly observe their effects on the surrounding space, such as gravitational lensing and the distortion of spacetime.
Absolute gravitational singularities challenge our current understanding of gravity and the laws of physics. They also play a key role in theories such as general relativity and the study of black holes. Further research on these singularities could lead to a better understanding of the fundamental principles of our universe.
