Let’s get an understanding of the scale we are talking about. Shrink the average star, like our own down to the size of a grain of sand.

@sublimehypocrisy Perhaps, if scientists actually "demoted" it honestly.

Ifba blackholes energy spreads out through a new expanding universe after the singularity, that space HAS to exist somewhere in some dimension. If we take the mass energy from all known blackholes in our galaxy and spread that energy through the size of our galaxy, would that account for the extra spin we see at the edges of galaxies? I think the blackholes energy is spread out in a higher dimension, that is parallel to our own and thus its gravity has influence on our own spacetime.
