In the centre of the universe I believe there is a giant black hole that all galaxies orbit
Wrong.Originally posted by Viper
But then if you look at all of the galaxies they are swirled around a centre or central area or an object(s) of intebse gravity
What are they "stretching from?" Can you please try to be a little more clear?Originally posted by Viper
Ok but what are they stretching from. If the universe becomes too stretshed will there be like an elastic affect?

I don't buy Hawking thought that because some energy radiates OUT that a black hole will eventually "evaporate". More stuff goes in; it becomes more massive; its gravity increases; it eats more stuff.

And as was pointed out, black holes merely empty the space surrounding them.
The "Centre of the universe" is a concept that has been debated by scientists, philosophers, and theologians for centuries. It refers to the point or location that is considered to be the center of all existence.
Based on current scientific understanding, there is no physical center of the universe. The universe is constantly expanding and there is no fixed point from which it is expanding. This means that there is no specific location that can be considered the center.
Since there is no physical center of the universe, scientists use various techniques and observations to determine the center. These include studying the cosmic microwave background radiation, mapping the distribution of galaxies, and measuring the overall structure and geometry of the universe.
No, the Earth is not the center of the universe. This was a widely accepted belief in ancient times, but with advancements in science and technology, we now know that the Earth is just one small planet in a vast universe.
The concept of a center of the universe has been important in understanding our place in the universe and our relationship to it. It has also been a subject of philosophical and religious debates, and has influenced our understanding of the origins and purpose of the universe.
