    It's aimed at the under 5s in his extra curricular educated class. "Gravity brings you back down to earth & spinny make you dizzy"

    Anyway Chazz we drift, on topic. How do you think City will do tomorrow? Are you off?

    Sir will give you detention, I'd get your mates on OLM for grassing you up to teacher.

    Is he the kid in the mod's parka who rides a girl's bike with a basket on the handle bars?

    A black hole isn't directly observed, it can't be. It's presence is inferred by the material orbiting it and the X rays and Gamma rays emitted from the accretion disk around the event horizon. It's mass is inferred from the speed and distance of the matter orbiting it. That's solid maths, it how New Horizons passed within thousands of miles of Pluto after a gravity assist from Jupiter . Gravity comes from the mass of an object, not it's spin. The field itself stretches infinitely but diminishes as per the inverse square law, which is how black holes hold galaxies together over thousands of light years.

    Errr ... it was originally on a movie thread. Do you actually read this board?

    You're correct in that the 'Establishment' would try to censor it. Ever heard of Vixra? You should try it; you might learn something. Or maybe not.

    He sneered.
    Any paper would have to be peer reviewed. You arent sufficiently qualified sorry.
    As i understand it you're a retired school teacher with an interest in physics. Good for you. Just dont get frustrated about the "Establishment" ignoring you. We dont on here, we laugh at you but we dont ignore you.

    He has a problem with the "Estaablishment" since they sacked him for de-sacking his co-worker.

    You didn't understand what I said, apparently. You're simply quoting the standard model, as presented in any high-school physics book. It isn't solid maths, it's standard physics. The inverse-square law is NOT a mathematical identity. It only becomes true when the associated field is irrotational (zero curl). And that's where my question about spin comes from. Again, what do you think about Frame Dragging?

    Well, you might do if you read some of the discussions. It's a mixed bag, much like this forum, some good, some bad, some downright ugly. Why are you on this thread, by the way? It was created so you can confine your valuable 'input' to Trivial Pursuits.

    Does a hypothetical "white hole" not exist any longer either? Have they all disappeared? Did they ever exist? Is a "white hole" simply an "anti black hole"? If matter can be lost from the universe into a "black hole" can they reappear from a "white hole"?

    ****ing love Doctor Who I do.

    Well, that fits in with your general level of understanding. I have never been, nor wanted to be, a teacher. It doesn't pay well enough. Again, why are you on this thread? It's intended for grown-ups.
