    hang on a mo, I thought Black holes were still in the Theoretic realm, is there proof of an exsting Black hole at the centre of Sagitarius???

    Quantum Physicsists have been analyzing em for years....its what happens inside which is theory

    It isn't a secret sign. It's been known to astronomers and astrologers for thousands of years.

    Astronomy wise calculating the relevent lightyears our orbits takes and the light years which its takes to reach teh galactic center or dark rift it happening every year is near impossible.
    No it's not. Earth position in the galaxy is well known and understood.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milky_Way#Sun.27s_location_and_neighborhood
    The Sun (and therefore the Earth and Solar System) may be found close to the inner rim of the Galaxy's Orion Arm, in the Local Fluff inside the Local Bubble, and in the Gould Belt, at a distance of 7.62±0.32 kpc (~25,000±1,000 ly) from the Galactic Center.

    Because you making the claim?
    And all the astronomy I've looked at doesn't support your claim?

    As for my proof: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galactic_Center
    The Galactic Center is the rotational center of the Milky Way galaxy. It is located about 7.6 kiloparsecs (25,000 ly) away from the Earth[1] in the direction of the constellations Sagittarius, Ophiuchus, and Scorpius where the Milky Way appears brightest

    Sagittarius A (or Sgr A) is a complex radio source at the center of our galaxy, the Milky Way. It is located in the sky in the Sagittarius

    Sagittarius

    33.6 days

    I miss anything?

    There are many observed black holes.

    All the evidence points to this as the black at the centre of the galaxy.

    that'd be a no then, still theory fromwhat I see, got any reasonable evidence of one?

    tbh you aren't addressing my points correctly, arguing with everyone and no matter what I say despite me studying science, i'll get sweet fcuk all excep more crappy wiki links.....so I have a gig to play and i'm not wasting my time arguing cause I don't really give a ****....

    oh and try using google, google michio Kaka, Mark Holdsten, Einstien....

    That's a yes actually.
    There's plenty of reasonable evidence on the wikipedia pages provided.

    I just learned that Edward Hubble was a great boxer...nothing to do with this thread but pretty interesting...*goes to read*

    How exactly? By asking you to back up your claims?
    Hate to break it to you but I study science too.

    And links for 2012 sites are better?
    At least Wikipedia has references.

    I do regularly.
    I've never seen Einstien or Michio Kaku give any credence to 2012 theories.

    I sent you 3 youtube videos....you didn't even notice no....and stop with the rhethorical questions its a massive representation of arrogance...no need to be a smart arse at all

    Youtube videos?


    I'm not a scientist, but I do like astronomy, and there seems to be nonsense coming from all sides here

    Yea they're talking about an event that happens every 11 years.
    It has nothing whatsoever to do with Mayan predictions.

    Can you provide any evidence that the galactic alignment happens only every 26,000 years?

    Can you show where my reasoning is wrong?

    OK I'm feelin exceptionaly lazy, anyone want to produce a Photograph of one of these blackhol3es


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,483 ✭✭✭Ostrom


    Hubble site has some mock-ups

    You cant image a black hole, NASA use X-ray telescopes to measure radiation from the accretion disk. Sorry I cant remember the name of the telescope - its in near earth orbit


    Here it is: http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/category/blackholes.html

    You can observe M81 quite easily from the ground

    Pretty sure theres no "photo" of a Black Hole, but here http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/news/topstory/2008/blackhole_slumber.html

    They're not usually imaged.
    They detected by Xray AFIAK.

    Here's a list of possible/probable ones.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_black_hole#Stellar_mass_black_hole_candidates

    Here's a few images of Supermassive black holes.

    theres one on the bbc science website, pretty recent, it's not a direct photo but it's visible effect's on objects and stars around it.

    OK, we's gettin places, now, I's off ta me Leaba, tomorrow I'll have a beter look at whats actually goin ta happen to all the stars n planets on 21/12/12, hows about we have a discussion about the ins and outs of it armed with the same evel of verifiable evidence and the same level of acceptance of theory as we've done today, y'kno we might just be able ta 'all just get along';) :D:D:D:D

    Nothing will happen... nothing.

    Well if it's in a news article it must be true.

    Can you provide anything that shows the this galactic alignment doesn't happen every year but every 26000 years?

    Because as far as I see it the galactic centre (the supermassive black hole) is in the constellation of Sagittarius.
    Sagittarius is part of the zodiac. The zodiac is a group of 13 constellations the sun appears to go through as viewed from Earth as it orbits the Sun.
    During every winter solstice every year the Sun is in the constellation of Sagittarius.
    So it is between us and the galactic centre just like every year.


    TBH with you I couldn't get a sh1t! Just googled it and got that link. Good day to you sir ;)
