But Do They Have Pictures?
By Larry Hendrick | December 15, 2005
I have been facinated with this type stuff most of my life. It is interesting that scientists have to postulate a lot of theories to explain what appears to take place in space.
It is no wonder that someone like Gene Rodenberry could write about all these wonders and make them seem very real, when you read what is positioned as real these days and how much “faith” it takes to believe…
SPACE.com — Black Hole Swallows Neutron Star, Observations Suggest
A distant eruption of high-energy gamma rays is evidence for a black hole swallowing another dense object called a neutron star, astronomers announced today.
A neutron star is a stellar corpse with a mass equal to a few suns packed into a space no more than 12 miles across. Black holes are even denser objects, so dense that matter and even light can’t escape once inside their spheres of invisible influence.
Scientists have long suspected collisions between these objects are common.
