Some evolutionists believe that there  were some black holes before the creation of the world, This probably occurred before the big bang that started it all.

There may have been black holes in the early universe before the first stars, and a group of theoretical physicists has proposed a new way to explain how they could have formed using the heat of the cosmic microwave background. The idea may be a better explanation for the “little red dots” identified by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) – distant galaxies that seem to host surprisingly large numbers of astonishingly ancient black holes.

This study throws a shadow on the big bang as massive black holes could not rise so soon after the big bang,

“This system is in the very, very early universe,” says Dougal Dobie at the University of Sydney, who wasn’t involved in the discovery. “So, how have we ended up in a situation where these three supermassive black holes have formed and come close together in only a billion years or so since the big bang?”

An analysis revealed two separate regions of high-velocity hydrogen gas in the centre of the galaxy, indicating two so-called accreting black holes that were separated by about 620 light years – a hop, skip and a jump in cosmic terms.

An accreting black hole is a super dense area of space, so compressed that light can’t escape, but that continuously drags in surrounding gas, dust and even stars. Our own galaxy, the Milky Way, has just one massive black hole at the core of its spiral arms.

Millions of planets might form around supermassive black holes

What does black holes done for planets? According to a recently published study, they form planets around supermassive black holes.

The active centres of galaxies might be regions of extraordinary planet formation, where millions of worlds are born.

Most galaxies in the universe, such as our own Milky Way, host a supermassive black hole at their centre. Most of the time, these black holes are quiescent, as there is no matter falling into them. But occasionally they become active and consume huge amounts of dust and gas, perhaps from a merger with another according to evolution, becoming an active galactic nucleus for millions of years.

Galaxies fling out matter much more violently than we thought

From where does dark matter come? Even the ordinary cosmic matter is a mystery for some cosmologists. Now they have a solution, black holes.

Unexpectedly violent black holes may have caused the mystery of the missing cosmic matter.

Most of the universe is filled with mysterious dark matter, but even ordinary matter has stumped cosmologists. Some of this normal matter – made up of particles called baryons – seemed to have been missing for a long time. Researchers recently worked out where it was hiding, and now Boryana Hadzhiyska at the University of California, Berkeley and her colleagues have learned how black holes may have shaped its distribution and kept it hidden.

Two huge black holes merged into one and went flying across the cosmos

Space is wonderful, we cannot see how God made it,  Just now two big black holes are  merged into one.  and it is flying at a speed of a thousand kilometres per second,

A rare collision between two supermassive black holes (SMBH) appears to have sent the resulting merger speeding through the universe, making it one of the fastest-moving black holes we have ever seen.

Astronomers have long puzzled over how the gargantuan black holes at the centres of galaxies can grow to be so large. One possible route is for smaller – but still extremely massive – black holes to merge together, but there has been little direct evidence of this happening.

What are black holes? Recently, a black hole appears to send more noise to us.  

“Strange vibrations emanating from a supermassive black hole appear to be growing more frequent and they could be caused by a white dwarf star orbiting perilously close to its event horizon.

In 2018, a supermassive black hole called 1ES 1927+654 took astronomers by surprise by changing from a relatively inactive black hole to an extremely bright one. It was the first time a supermassive black hole had been observed changing in this way.”

Space is unique, as God created it that way,

Black hole 'traffic jams' are forcing cosmic monsters to collide, new study finds

The galaxy is filled with wonders. Some of them belong to Black Holes. New research points to the fact that black hole collisions are almost inevitable.

The researchers say that supermassive “black holes, enormous voids that swirl around everything in the galaxies themselves. This swirly behaviour influences things like the disks of matter the galactic titan feasts on, stars and their systems — and, fascinatingly, even other black holes, albeit smaller, stellar mass ones.”

Monster black hole powers the brightest known object in the universe

Astronomers have found a quasar 12 billion light years away hosting a supermassive black hole that gobbles up a sun-sized amount of mass every day

Space is wonderful, full of things know as black holes.

Recently, “a quasar500 trillion times brighter than the sun has taken the title of the brightest known object in the universe. It appears to be powered by a supermassive black hole that is devouring a sun-sized amount of mass every day.”

Here what New Scientist told of the find:

“Quasars are galactic cores where gas and dust falling into a supermassive black hole release energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. Christian Wolf at the Australian National University in Canberra and his colleagues first spotted the new brightest quasar, called J0529-4351, in 2022 by combing through data from the Gaia space telescope and looking for extremely bright objects outside the Milky Way that were misidentified as stars.

After following up with further observations from the Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile, they have now found it it is the most luminous object in the universe that we know of.

Wolf and his colleagues used a device on the VLT called a spectrometer to analyse the light coming from J0529-4351 and calculate how much was produced by the black hole’s swirling disc of gas and matter, called its accretion disc. This revealed that J0529-4351 is the fastest-growing black hole in the universe, gobbling up around 413 solar masses per year, or more than a sun per day”.

“Black holes may not destroy all information about what they were originally made of, according to a new set of quantum calculations, which would solve a major physics paradox first described by Stephen Hawking

One of the biggest paradoxes in astrophysics may finally be solved. The question of what happens to information when it falls into a black hole has vexed physicists for decades, and now a group of researchers claims to have figured it out”.

When Stephen Hawking calculated that black holes should slowly evaporate by emitting radiation – now called Hawking radiation – he also created a problem.

In the 1984 Russell Humpreys wrote the book Starlhght and Time in which he postulation that by using white holes and that the Earth could only be 6000 years old. He has also made many  creaionist assumptiions such as the Mercury'sgravitational field.

His theory  relies on Albert Einstein's thoughts, but his idea of white holes is his own.

Two Black Holes Fused Into One

Two black holes fused into one. “Imagine the energy of eight Suns released in an instant.” This brings to mind how great is our God.

According to evolutionists, the signal from this event travelled for some  seven billion years to reach Earth but was still sufficiently strong to rattle laser detectors in the US and Italy in May last year.

Researchers say the colliding black holes produced a single entity with a mass 142 times that of our Sun.

"It's astounding, really," said Prof Nelson Christensen from the Côte d'Azur Observatory in France. "This signal propagated for 7 million years . So this event happened 'just before halftime' for the Universe, and now it's mechanically moved our detectors here on Earth," he explained to BBC News.
