| A while ago I heard about white holes. Apparently they are hypothetical reverse black holes. Instead of taking in matter, it spews it out. Unfortunately, they are not possible in our universe, but they are still interesting.
Hello.

They could still be possible, we just haven't found any yet, just like how people thought black holes were just SciFi

| They may exist in our universe, but it is rather unlikely because white holes are speculated to decrease entropy and therefore break the laws of thermodynamics. However, if the multiverse exists, white holes may appear in universes which do not follow these rules.

They are not in the same range of possibility. Black holes are not fundamentally impossible because they can be made from matter if it collapses enough. It was initially hard to believe that sufficient collapse could occur in nature, but we eventually discovered that it does.
But there is no process for creating a white hole. You can't make one from a distribution of matter or energy. It has to be an initial condition of the space-time.

| We are not actually certain about the formation of white holes. There is some speculation that black holes transform into white holes at the end of their lifespans, but this is not proven. Currently white holes are completely theoretical and shrouded in mystery. Black holes, on the other hand, are rather common, and quite a bit of information is available on them.

Wat. I've never heard this, do you know of a paper offhand?
Added: Oh, found it. According to a model in quantum gravity. Weird!

| Not really sure where to put this new video.
It does show that it is possible to simulate galaxy pretty accurate, but it seems to be a task so complex that no ordinary computer can handle at any rate.
http://www.popularmechanics.com/space....-galaxy
Quote A group of astronomers led by the California Institute of Technology have created the most accurate model of the Milky Way's formation ever produced. By using a network of 2,000 computers running in parallel, the research team was able to accurately simulate the process by which pockets of gas and dust coalesced into our galaxy, starting just moments after the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago and ending with today's galaxy. |

| That is so damn COOL!
I need to know the background of this research, but I'm loving how the interstellar dust is being illuminated. Mind-blowing!

| I received several questions yesterday about a possible large meteor seen from Northern Norway, but it seems to be a rocket launch instead. I published something on our website (use Google translate). Observers say it exploded. Hard to judge from the picture. Perhaps it just was a first stage separations. I haven't found this launch announced anywhere, but the Russians might not bother. Surely this must be of Russian origin. The photo was taken from 70.7N 23.7E towards ESE.
