Without a Trace

"The black holes of nature are the most perfect macroscopic objects there are in the universe: the only elements in their construction are our concepts of space and time." - Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar

Why did we go there?

Bothering to listen.

Letting them win.

Stealing our souls.

Sucking us into their

never-ending, 

inescapable, 

unmitigated ...

... black holes ...

Author's Note

“If the day and the night are such that you greet them with joy, and life emits a fragrance like flowers and sweet-scented herbs, is more elastic, more starry, more immortal- that is your success. All nature is your congratulation, and you have cause momentarily to bless yourself. The greatest gains and values are farthest from being appreciated. We easily come to doubt if they exist. We soon forget them. They are the highest reality. Perhaps the facts most astounding and most real are never communicated by man to man. The true harvest of my daily life is somewhat as intangible and indescribable as the tints of morning or evening. It is a little star-dust caught, a segment of the rainbow which I have clutched.” - Thoreau

A fine lament on the disappearance of stars in to these holes.
My belief is, inside of each black hole is another universe
and the same goes for stars, at the center of each star is another
universe. Humans are nothing compared to the presence and
power of stars and black holes. We are less than a speck of dust
within this mystery.

Bravo Poet!

thank you. we've barely scratched the surface. like pulling a thread on a vast sweater - keeps unraveling, revealing much more than than the sum ... :)

... and there will never be an answer. All that we can do is to keep pushing.

A madterful take on the universe and this wonderful scientific phenomenon. What will be revealed will astound. I love to read on these subjects.
