IT professional with a passing interest in Physics and Cosmology

How did you find PF?

I have an interest in Physics and Cosmology. I don't have a strong education in this stuff, and understand that I probably know next to nothing on these topics.
In my later years I do kinda wish I had followed a career in this, because it is fascinating stuff.

Hello, would my thread be considered fringe science?

If you mean your black hole thread, no that is a common question that we see from time to time.

Sometimes, we get people pushing some radical theory or personal theory that has not been peer reviewed and arguments ensue. We don’t tolerate those kinds of threads.

That's good to know.

I have thoughts on things, as I expect most people do. I don't have the education to know if my thoughts are things that have been considered or are unfeasible. I certainly wouldn't push my thoughts as if they are the way reality is. So I'm not trying to push a personal theory.

But I don't know enough to know whether my thoughts are bonkers or not. I'm quite happy to learn, I am quite happy to change my thoughts based on things people can enlighten me on.

I'm a bit nervous about my thread. First time participating on a physics forum, I'm not wanting to flame or show that I have a brilliant theory. I am wanting to learn. Anyway, we'll see how it goes.
