While we're throwing around ideas, how about this:
Black holes do exist. They are simply the beginning of the inverse of what we call the "Big Bang". The Big Bang was space and matter appearing from nothingness. A black hole is space and matter disappearing back into nothingness, where it came from. At the current time in our universe, black holes exist only locally, dispersed thinly throughout space. As time progresses (billions of years), distinct black holes will merge, forming larger black holes, eventually usurping all space and matter in existence, leaving behind nothing. And then, a new Big Bang, followed by its inverse, can occur again.
The only somewhat confusing part is that, while the universe may have expanded from a single point (the Big Bang), it will not contract into a single point before disappearing. I'm not entirely sure why, but this is exactly the same we see with all extinct life forms: evolving from a single point/origin, but disappearing as a multitude of separate things spread out over their habitat. Or perhaps it's simpler to just say: from the perspective of the universe space doesn't exist. The universe comprises space. It doesn't move in space, it is space (and all that it contains).
- snarfy 10y agoMight as well throw my own ideas out: 1. Near the surface of a black hole, spacial dimensions become time-like, and the time dimension becomes space-like. If our universe started as a singularity, then our time dimension may be the squashed higher spacial dimension of some higher order universe. 2. Black holes supposedly can have electric charge. If the space around a black hole is distorted as described in 1., the electric charge would appear to the rest of the universe as a magnetic monopole. Black holes are magnetic monopoles.
- drdeca 10y agoErr, a black hole having an electric charge and spinning would, I think, produce a magnetic field, but it would m not be a monopole. It would be a magnetic dipole, like an electron.
- snarfy 10y agoThis is the accepted belief. I'm considering a more basic model of a static, non spinning but electrically charged black hole. It's really an electromagnetic field not two separate fields, and it seems the gravity would warp the electromagnetic field back around so that from our reference frame we see a magnetic not electric charge aka monopole.
