Years after ripping stars to shreds, 24 black holes suddenly flared up with radio waves in inexplicable 'burping' bouts. Half of all star-killing black holes may experience the same.
I am probably looking to deep into this but a recent kurtzgesagt claimed that once you get to the event horizon time and space switch into eachother. Your no getting sucked into the center. But your falling into the future.
Sm coming back out years later doesn’t sound like a contradiction to that,
There’s almost nothing more contradictory to that. While within a black hole, time becomes space-like, with your future being the inevitable center. The only possible way to escape would be to go back in time.
Well that’s assuming einsteinian physics, black holes are one of the few cases our physics stops making much sense.
I guess the future being at the center is what makes it confusing to me.
In my head disappearing while being pulled towards their future and then someMaterial being burped out in the future sound like some parts arrived at a destination.
I would assume the material being burped out has been inside while l pulled towards the future till it no longer was.
The first sentence of the body text in the article:
“Up to half of the black holes that devour stars “burp up” their stellar remains years later.”
I recognize that its not an entire sun being sucked in at once and that the black holes presence alone destroys the sun but the parts that are left. Radiation and what not should still be attracted to the black hole and assumingly orbit around its gravity before gething devoured.
It cant burp something out that was never inside. Or maybe it does but those implications are even more bizar. If it was just “burping out” the surrounding star stuff it wouldn’t be called a burp but “pushed it away again.

According to the discoverer, this has nothing to do with the event horizon.
When something gets sucked into a blackhole it needs to pas the event horizon.

How else am i to interpret this?
Maybe don’t read too much into the word choice of a non-technical article, and trust the actual astronomer discoverer talking about it?
