Mega-Mega Black Holes Discovered
I’m not a physicist, and I am certainly not inclined to work out the harm a supernova can do to us. But I do know that when scientists say X light years away is safe, I think perhaps multiply that by 5 or 10 to cover the aspects they haven’t discovered or determined yet.
Black Holes are not acknowledged by orthodox scientists to be a risk to Planet Earth. The jets that can flow from them would be devastating, but with the nearest black hole being so far away (the center of our galaxy), the idea that we can be affected is ignored.
Enter Paul LaViolette:
Galactic superwaves recur at long intervals and arrive at Earth’s doorstep without warning because they travel at near light speed.
During its active period, our galactic core spews out a fierce quasar-like barrages of cosmic rays, with a total energy output equal to hundreds of thousands of supernova explosions. In some galaxies these active emissions have been observed to equal the energy from billions of supernova explosions.
Subsequent to LaViolette’s research, we learn that two supermassive black holes have been discovered:
Both weigh in at over 9 billion times the mass of our sun. These super-supermassive black holes are over 2,000 times more massive than the supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way.
It goes without saying that a galactic superwave emanating from either of these black holes could potentially be disastrous for us, although I suspect it is too esoteric to warrant a denial from experts.
