Black Hole “Information Leaks” Hint Gravity May Not be a Fundamental Force of Nature
Back in 2011, ground-breaking research by scientists at the University of York provided a new perspective on the physics of black holes. Black holes are objects in space that are so massive and compact they were described by Einstein as “bending” space. Conventional thinking asserts that black holes swallow everything that gets too close and that nothing can escape its “event horizon,” but the study suggested that information could escape from black holes after all. The implications could be revolutionary, suggesting that gravity may not be a fundamental force of Nature.
This is the kind of stuff I think I would really enjoy studying someday…
