Black Holes 'Eat' Stars To Get Supermassive, Scientists Say

“I have heard a lot of those things before in college physics class. Even though I got a B in it, I never felt comfortable with it. As much as I remember you could be putting me on. I guess that I should have asked the teacher what was causing all of those forces. Maybe you can tell me. Never mind, I doubt that I could understand it. I do remember gravity being a problem. I was thinking that maybe it is similar to a tornado in that spinning winds can cause some pretty strong forces. I realize that atmospheric pressure caused by gravity plays a big role in the forces of a tornado. Maybe we are in an energy pressure that when energy spins it causes forces. Enough of these forces coming together might cause matter. I know, Michelson-Morley experiment supposedly dispelled an energy field, but some have questioned the results. Not really understanding the propagation of light makes me wonder about its validity. I do not really know much of anything, so like many I am just grasping for straws at my level of knowledge. In that I am not very smart I have to try to make things simple so that I can understand them. I always felt that that was what made me good in math.”
