The Truth about Science
« on: 20/10/2022 01:15:54 »
If we do science and not worship it (or ipsi). And try to be kind. We learn how much we don't know we can stop. And deleting this will do no good. As long as people have access to information the thought police are dead. This is the third time I posted this, and as long as I can log in I/ll keep posting. Feel free to ignore.

Any questions look at all my posts. I'm actually intelligent enough not to want your opinion, as are you. so unless asked directly. why would you question somebody's education. Grown ups have so much more to do, we don't have time to be so childish.

But my point is...
A study, published in the Astrophysical Journal last week, detailed how scientists saw a black hole swallow a small star located 665 million light years away from Earth. However, in June 2021, the same black hole began ejecting material that traveled at half the speed of light.

So your point is an article?

That's nice but all evidence says that it is not wrong.

Then explain why and show your evidence.
As you say you have posted this before and will keep posting it, you are confined to posting only in this thread until you have shown clear evidence of your hypothesis.

The mystery is why there was a gap between the star being spaghettified (causing a bright blip), and then the production of a jet of material (causing another bright blip), with a gap of about 3 years.

One possible reason for the gap is that the star's interior has been swirling around in the black hole's accretion disk, slowly working its way to the inner disk, where it contributed to a brightening of the black holes' jet.

The first law of thermodynamics is largely self-evident. The second law has stood the test of time despite continuous attempts to circumvent it. As such, I would argue that it is the least likely of all the laws of physics to be overturned.

Quite correct, Peter11, ConCeptUs believes the second law is wrong. While he is quite entitled to this belief, such beliefs are not science. Science deals with observations, which lead to theories and these theories are open to validation or falsification. No data exist to falsify the second law, as yet, though it may happen in the future. Most contributors who try to debunk the laws of thermodynamics belong to the "free energy" or "overunity" cohort.
