But yes, existence of singularities does not mean a breakdown of GR. It suggests that GR is not a complete theory of gravity and means that ww cannot make a meaningful prediction about behavior of the system at the singularity points. We can even consider that GR predicts singularities when the curvature of the spacetime becomes so strong that it becomes infinite.
- BlackFly 4y agoYou are missing my point. It is entirely possible that GR is a complete theory of gravity. The final fate of collapse could be merely a simple singularity. There is absolutely no evidence to the contrary and, if general relativity is correct, no way for the scientific community to ever know.
