| Posted By: wondering star Posted On: Jun 20, 2012 Views: 985 | Black Holes and leakage On your Black Hole page you ask for suggestions for how a singularity became a universe if nothing can escape a Black Hole. But some energy can escape, according to Hawking. source: http://phys.org/news156450506.html extract: Hawking also described how he discovered that particles could slowly leak out of black holes and release energy. A miniature black hole of the mass of a mountain could generate enough power to supply the world’s energy needs. However, the energy would be difficult to harness as the power could not be maintained in a power station. It would drop through the floor and end up at the center of the Earth. |

Nonetheless, you have raised an interesting point that will no doubt provide many more years of research. |
