What is the "question mark" in new James Webb telescope image? (msn.com) Anyone who sees this is just looking for a thrill in his life. Ask Hemorrhoid.

...on the evenings of October 27 and December 3, 2022. Try not to use this post for personal attacks on my "cheap" clothes, my eyesight, or my "absolute" lack of knowledge about physics. I'm just a hick "looking for my 15 minutes of fame". You know who you are I used different filters to enhance the photos.

Protect our universe

I love astronomy. I don't claim to know a lot about it or understand it that much. But it has always fascinated me and I religiously watch every program I can on the Universe hosted by Neil deGrasse Tyson, Morgan Freeman, Michelle Thaller, Brian Cox, Alex Filippenko, Hakeem Oluseyi, Michio Kaku, Lawrence Krauss, Phil Plait, Dan Durda, and my crush, Moogega Cooper - just to name a few. Love Bill Nye and of course my hero Carl Sagan. In fact, I named one of my dogs after Sagan. He's a lovable 120 lb Pitbull. This is Sagan watching Sagan on TV:

https://www.unilad.com/news/police-bodycam-ufo-crash-landing-731134-20230609 In a couple other articles I read about this, 21+ people reported seeing the exact same thing, a strange green glowing light zipping around and then falling towards the ground, as well as multiple reports about "non-human looking creatures walking around and hiding in people's yards.

I hope they pay a similar tribute to Sir Elton and Rocket Man when the time comes.

If you have existed for 13.8 billion years, you become aware of yourself and eventually, that consciousness evolves into thought. Emotions follow that. You already had all the elements of life as we know it scattered throughout yourself. You are probably bored and lonely. You want to experience all situations, all emotions, good and bad. fair and unfair. So you create the elements of life in the wombs of Supernovae and spew it throughout yourself. Some of that lands on asteroids and they crash onto planets and the cycle of life begins. Life evolves and humans burst into existence. But humans aren't the end of evolution. They evolve into gods. It's happening now with cloning, bringing life back that to what was frozen or trapped in sap for thousands of years. Now we are also creating life through artificial intelligence. That AI will will soon have separate individual thoughts, learn how to survive and protect themselves, become invincible, maybe even destroy humans. This has and will occur forever. Ever get that feeling of deja vu? This is the reason. If the Universe is finite, if all the mass and energy is the same in every cycle (it should be), then everything will occur exactly the same way as it always has, at the same point and place in time. Some scientists believe we are a never-ending cycle of a Big Bang followed by a Big Crunch and so on. I have posted these idea here throughout eternity. Try hard to remember this in your next exactly-repeated life. Do you remember? What will happen if enough of us remember? How will we react? Will that change the Universal cycle?

What is the widest diameter of a black hole every recorded? One site said there's a 15,000 light year diameter one in the center of some galaxy (forgot the name), and another theorized that the "great attractor" is actually like a 1.5-2 Million Light Year Wide Black Hole pulling much of the local universe toward it. Other than that I haven't been able to find good info on this, is it even possible for a black hole to become over a light year wide? I can see a few light years wide for galactic size ones, but 15,000 or a million? I doubt it.

Astronomers solve the 60-year mystery of quasars -- the most powerful objects in the Universe "Scientists have unlocked one of the biggest mysteries of quasars -- the brightest, most powerful objects in the Universe -- by discovering that they are ignited by galaxies colliding."

This video would make you think so. But one big thing the standard model has in its favour is that it adds up - the combination of the energy in dark energy, dark matter and ordinary matter is just what is needed to make the Universe flat. If dark energy got discarded (as this video suggests it could be), this would surely no longer be so. Hence I need more convincing.

https://nypost.com/2023/03/26/a-supermassive-black-hole-now-faces-earth-scientists/ I'm not sure if they mean it's actually heading this way or it's just pointing its beam at us, but I think it's so far away it would take millions of years to get here anyway. They also discovered a rogue Black Hole flying out of it's parent galaxy, but that's not headed our way according to them, but still very rare.

These days you can see a nice alignment of planets; You have to get up early to see it but it's worth it!

What are your ideas on the name of the future match?

In a series of breakthrough papers, theoretical physicists have come tantalizingly close to resolving the black hole information paradox that has entranced and bedeviled them for nearly 50 years. Information, they now say with confidence, does escape a black hole. If you jump into one, you will not be gone for good. Particle by particle, the information needed to reconstitute your body will reemerge. Most physicists have long assumed it would; that was the upshot of string theory, their leading candidate for a unified theory of nature. But the new calculations, though inspired by string theory, stand on their own, with nary a string in sight. Information gets out through the workings of gravity itself — just ordinary gravity with a single layer of quantum effects. https://www.quantamagazine.org/the-black-hole-information-paradox-comes-to-an-end-20201029/
