\"\"<\/a> Hello science and science fiction fans!\u00a0 We went on another wild ride \u201cThrough the Wormhole\u201d with Morgan Freeman on Wednesday night. I have had company so I am a few episodes behind, but I will catch up! The episode \u201cThe Riddle of Black Holes\u201d was a theoretical ride into the very heart of a black hole! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In the first episode Freeman asked the question \u201cIs there a creator\u201d, and he gave us three very thought provoking answers.\u00a0 In this week\u2019s episode he did the same thing.\u00a0 It would appear that Freeman intends to leave us each week scratching our heads and asking questions to further our understanding of th<\/span><\/span>\"WormholeRiders<\/a><\/span><\/span>e topic. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Just what is a black hole?\u00a0 Freeman tells us that \u201castrophysicists think that black holes might form when giant stars run out of fuel and collapse under their weight.\u201d He then goes on to say that we do not know what a black hole really is because \u201ca black hole is a place that the accepted laws of physics breaks down.\u201d He then makes another thought provoking statement. He states \u201cYou, me, and the world we live in may be nothing more than an illusion.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
