How is math related to black holes?

The concept of a black hole was first discovered mathematically in 1916 through the equations of Einstein's general relativity. Using mathematics scientists were able to figure out many of the properties and behaviors of black holes before the end of the 1960s. The first direct psychical evidence of a black hole was not found until the late 1970s.


What does it mean that black holes are theory?

Whoever said this seems to think that there is not enough direct evidence for black holes. However, I understand there is enough evidence to believe that black holes actually exist - including the observation of many, many objects that can only be black holes.


Why is lack of evidence for black holes a problem for scientists?

There is no shortage of evidence that black holes exist, and as such it is not a problem! The "problem" is a misconception that we cannot "see" black holes in the traditional sense. Usually surrounded by clouds of dust and particles (accretion disks) our vision is technically obstructed of the object. However, science has excellent ways of expanding beyond our own limited senses. By mapping objects being sucked into the area and the gravitational disturbance on nearby objects, we can see clearly that there is something there. Given the gigantic gravitational pull, and the fact that we can't "see" any light coming from the object itself, there is literally nothing as massive as a star that can pull so strongly on nearby objects without it being a star, except for a black hole (or of course a neutron star).


Is there a black hole in the milky way?

Scientists are now largely convinced that there is indeed one at the centre of the galaxy... the evidence indicates a compact high-mass object there; if it's not a black hole, we don't know what else it could be.

Was George Washington black?

There has been no direct evidence presented to show that George Washington had a black son, or any children at all. There has been talk that he did have a son with a young black slave who was called Venus. But no evidence has been presented to confirm that.

Is dying of consumption the same as dying from turberculosis?

The truth is, no one knows. The majority of scientists believe that consumption is the same as tuberculosis, but because the term was used so long ago, the scientists have no evidence to prove what the disease was in modern day terms. the same goes for the "Black Death" and the bubonic plague
