Could Aliens Have Used Black Holes To Travel Through Space?

Could you imagine if this is true what it means about space travel and the future?  If this is true here is some more to ponder from the article:

An important problem facing alien physicists would be that the density of electromagnetic energy needed to reach the Planck scale is so great that the device would be in danger of collapsing into a black hole of its own making. However, Lacki points out that a clever designer could, in principle, get round this problem and “reaching [the] Planck energy is technically allowed, if extremely difficult”.

Not surprisingly, such an accelerator would have to be rather large. Lacki believes that if electric fields are used for acceleration, the device would have to be at least 10 times the radius of the Sun. However, a magnetic synchrotron-type accelerator could be somewhat smaller. As for what materials could be used to make the accelerator, Lacki says that normal materials could not withstand the strong electromagnetic fields. Indeed, one of the few places where such a high energy density could exist is in the vicinity of a black hole, which he argues could be harnessed to create a Planck-scale accelerator.

We hope you enjoyed reading about this possibility and we think there may be something there.

And here is a related video on some weird planets spotted by NASA.  Maybe some of them have extraterrestrials.

    Visible light has been recorded escaping a black hole, and just as Hawkings theorized that they are temporary in nature, they have witnessed a black hole dissipate. So, with those findings we have to rethink our whole idea of how black holes interact with Dark Matter and Dark Energy. So, it may not be out of the realm of possibilities.
