Anyway, size comparisons (fnarr fnarr). I saw one of them (may have been Brian Greene. iirc) use this analogy:

Imagine a whole, Olympic sized swimming pool drained and crammed with books. Our Milky Way galaxy, 100,000 light years across, would constitute one full stop on a page. To get that even more into perspective what 100, 000 light years is - the sun is just over nine minutes away.

I see it like heated glass, and blowing air in to make a bubble, that bubble becomes our universe. What is feeding it, is it the strings from the black hole as described in the previous video 'the strings.' - from that who knows maybe it creates multi universes.

How was the black hole created and hole in what?
 
He thought himself into existence, ****ing good trick when you don,t exist. I think it beats something colliding in a total void on technical difficulty alone.

See if you can get hold of a copy of Rarg, a cartoon made some years ago that Nigel Hawthorne narrates. You'll see why. :emoticon-0100-smile
 
Go watch the 45 minute video I put up earlier today, I'm sure they covered it in some aspect. <ok>
Watching footy mate.
I always thought black holes were created by imploding supernova which would suggest the void had stars in it :grin:

As humans the theory is if I've got this right, we only see 5% matter in the universe, what we don't see is the other 95% which is made up of dark energy and dark matter. In the video they described it perfectly via the use of a Christmas Tree with lights on it, as though they were the stars, and you are looking at the tree in the dark - hiding the branches, the theory of how the universe is held together. To me, like the blood veins and connective tissue of a human being.
