The simulation is pretty amazing, but the wording and headline of the article point to what I feel like in science, not just physics, ecology's pretty bad for it too, but the impression I always get from models and simulations is that when they don't match up with reality, somehow reality's wrong and not the model or simulation.
- tempguy9999 7y ago"Mind-bending black hole simulation appears to defy reality" "Appears to". Doesn't say it does. Doesn't suggest it does. I think you're being unfair. > when they don't match up with reality, somehow reality's wrong and not the model or simulation. Can you point to some examples? This is not something I've noticed myself.
- raven_and_wolf 7y agoNo, this would be the pop science writers looking for click bait. Literally no one I know talks like this and I'm a black hole astrophysicist who actually knows one of the people that made the image.
