Black Holes

The article that I read was about super massive black holes. Prior to the mid 90s it has been theorized that super massive black holes (big as distance between mars and the sun) exist in the center of the Milky Way galaxy. This theory was confirmed in 1994 by the Hubble space telescope. Presently new techniques helped astronomers like Andrea Ghez take a better look at the center of our galaxy. Her results showed that several suns are revolving rather quickly around what is believed to be a black hole. The new theory presently to explain why there is a black hole at the center of our galaxy is that all galaxies have them and they are involved in the creation of galaxies. This is a very interesting article because for a long time black holes where looked as science fiction. They are very interesting perhaps because black holes can be considered one of the most mysterious things in the universe. According to this article black holes eats and spits out materials, for a while I believed that they just ate. Basically if there is an object too close to a black hole it then gets caught in its gravitational pull and goes in to the event horizon (the area around a black hole) and is never seen again. The mysterious part of all this is what exactly happens to that object when it disappears from view. According to the laws of Thermal dynamics energy can not be created or destroyed but rather changed into another form. My personal opinion is that black holes are not responsible for the creation of galaxy. I based on another law of science that states “everything tends towards disorder.” Black holes destroy, so in my view something that destroys is not responsible for creating something the opposite of disorder, but I do believe that black holes play an important role in the function of a galaxy.
