"Scientists Observe Supermassive Black Hole Feeding on Cold Gas" For the first time, astronomers have detected billowy clouds of cold, clumpy gas streaming toward a black hole, at the center of a massive galaxy cluster. The clouds are traveling at speeds of up to 355 kilometers per second -- that's almost 800,000 miles per hour -- and may be only 150 light years away from its edge, almost certain to fall into the black hole, feeding its bottomless well. The observations, which will be published in the journal Nature, represent the first direct evidence to support the hypothesis that black holes feed on clouds of cold gas. http://www.ecnmag.com/news/2016/06/scientists-observe-supermassive-black-hole-feeding-cold-gas
my neighbor observed Flying spaghetti monster feeding on his lunch. He ended up in a psychiatric hospital. Scientists get paid for the same. As long as it is not out of my pocket, I am fine with that. "Cosmologists are always in error but never in doubt" - the Russian Nobel Prize-winning physicist Lev Landau. I like the new mathematical value "bottomless". Only that makes the scientific observation worth of gold in a Comedy Club. May be I should rethink and give the clowns some spare change out of my pocket.
