In the 1970s researchers knew that when an object becomes part of a black hole, two things happen. One, all the detailed information about that object is lost. And two, the surface area of the black hole's event horizon (the point of no return for infalling matter and energy) grows.” Holographic universe experiment begins https://www.symmetrymagazine.org/article/august-2013/holographic-universe-experiment-begins “A unique experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory has started collecting data that will answer some mind-bending questions about our universe—including whether we live in a hologram.” Study reveals substantial evidence of holographic universe https://phys.org/news/2017-01-reveals-substantial-evidence-holographic-universe.html A holographic universe, an idea first suggested in the 1990s, is one where all the information that makes up our 3-D 'reality' (plus time) is contained in a 2-D surface on its boundaries. ____________________ Seeker+ is built for enthusiastic science fans who are interested in comprehensive conversations on their favorite geeky topics.
