"Black Holes" VS. HURRICANES Using the repaired Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have been observing vortices of high-speed gases at the centers of some nearby galaxies. The astrophysicists ASSUME that these high-speed gases are orbiting around or spiraling into a significant mass at the vortex center. So they eagerly pull out their calculators and compute the ASSUMED mass to be equivalent to the mass of MILLIONS of Suns. They then declare this to be "PROOF" of a "black hole" at the center of each galaxy. But the ASSUMPTION of a large mass at the center of each vortex of high-speed gases is ERRONEOUS. Astro photographs of spiral galaxies look a lot like satellite photographs of HURRICANES. How much mass is at the center of a hurricane? Not much! The pressure and density inside the eye of a hurricane are MUCH LESS than they are outside the eye. Likewise, the pressure and density inside a moderately strong TORNADO are typically about HALF of what they are outside of it. What you REALLY have at the center of each galaxy is NOT a "black hole", but instead the EYE of some kind of cosmic HURRICANE. "Black holes" DO NOT EXIST. They are just MATHEMATICAL FANTASIES resulting from ERRONEOUS assumptions or theories about the life cycles of stars and how they generate energy. The results of scientific observation and experiment are at least 90% INTERPRETATION. Whenever the interpretation is based on ERRONEOUS ASSUMPTIONS, then the results and conclusions will ALSO be ERRONEOUS.
