Scientist claims she has mathematical proof black
holes cannot exist
She said it is impossible for stars to collapse
and form a singularity
Professor Laura Mersini-Houghton said she is still in 'shock' from the find Previously, scientists thought stars much larger than the sun collapsed under their own gravity and formed black holes when they died During this process they release a type of radiation called Hawking radiation
But new research claims the star would lose too much mass and wouldn't be able to form a black hole If true, the theory that the universe began as a singularity, followed by the Big Bang, could also be wrong
