Random Black Hole Theories

Everyone has seen a television show or movie that involves a black hole at some point in their life. Though most times the black hole is portrayed as the ultimate destructive device; meaning anything sucked in is broken down to the littlest atom possible. But believe it or not there are other theories.

One theory that I enjoy and one that you would think to be more popular, but not, is that black holes are actually gateways. Be that a gateway to another time, or another dimension.

Another theory is that black holes are actually an interstellar transit system. Enter one at this end of the universe, exit from one on the other side of the universe. This way we don't need starships with light or warp speed. Makes things a little cheaper don't you think?

What if black holes were nothing more than planetary shields? Ever think about that. Everyone avoids black holes, so what better way to keep your planet from an invasion than to hide it behind a black hole. Seems like a smart idea to me. Just something else for your brain to chew on.

All in all, it ultimately doesn't matter what a black hole is. It's just too dangerous for us to explore them. Though, maybe we could talk some of the people that are tying up our court systems with frugal lawsuits that this would be a good money making opportunity. It's not like they'll be able to sue us. Just a thought.

Disney's The Black Hole

In 1979 Disney went out on a limb and jumped head first into the Sci-Fi phenomenon that had occurred in the late '70s. Disney had seen the success of such films as "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" and "Star Wars" and felt it was time for them to cash in. But to obtain their cash, Disney had to spend quite a bit in the process.

As a story goes the plot wasn't all that bad, graphics were pretty impressive for their time, and the scientific facts were almost spot on. As far as a downfall, the movie does start out kind of slow, but about a half hour in everything picks up.

This movie not only tells a decent story, but gets your creative juices flowing. You start to spend time wondering what would really happen if you were to travel into a black hole. Would something extraordinary happen or would your life just simply be forfeited. No one may ever know.

If you have the chance to see Disney's The Black Hole, it's strongly recommended that you do so.
