— Ace The Right Scoop's headline is precious: CNN Smears Black Holes in Latest Bout of Wild Speculation.
The only thing I can say in Don Lemon's defense is that he was... well, he said he was trying to respond to viewer questions. Apparently some people inquired about what I will call "The Black Hole Theory of the Crime." I guess you could say he was trying to inform people or something.
Of course, as usual, he was asking a non-expert to offer her expert opinion on the question. The woman he asked this question of opined that a black whole would swallow "our entire universe," which is... well, metaphorically true, I suppose, but only that. She did not note that there are theorized to exist microscopic black holes. If you remember, there was some fear that the Large Hadron Collider would produce some of these microscopic black holes, and do significant damage to the earth. (Spoiler alert: It didn't happen. And btw, I have no idea what the destructive potential of a microscopic black hole would be.)
I mean, if you're going to "explore the question" or whatever, then explore it. It's a silly idea, but if you're going to disabuse people of silly theories about black holes swallowing planes, then have an actual expert on black holes on to explain, as a scientific matter, "Nah, bro."
Meanwhile, Australia has announced "new and credible" information about large objects floating at sea which are possibly wreckage of the plane, spotted by satellite. They've deployed planes to take a closer look.
"Verification might take some time. It is very far and it will take some time to locate and verify the objects," the source said.
Watch out for the black holes, mate. Some say there's a swarm of them.
An ABCNews report on the search for the objects, stolen from Hot Air, below.

Do you realize what would happen to the earth if somehow the sun collapsed into a black hole tomorrow?
Aside from losing its energy source and becoming a frozen lifeless ball in space, nothing. It would continue to orbit the blackhole.

What do you mean non-expert? The woman was Inspector General of the DOT fer cryin' out loud. That's a broad portfolio which includes light rail, road sand, and quantum physics.
Otoh, she did say that a *small* black hole could swallow our entire universe, and since there are already variously-sized black holes extant in our universe we may be in trouble.

Not true. It is currently believed that there are MANY black holes in the universe though the science isn't "settled" I guess...since it is actual science.
Now, if there was a black hole in the atmosphere? We'd probably be fucked. Either it would swallow the earth or swallow a little bit and explode because it was too small.
Oh, and CNN is full of uneducated fools, as is the government.

Our entire universe huh, well I hope there aren't any other black holes in the universe.

My crazy conspiracy theory: apparently there was at least one Russian and one Ukranian on the plane, so it is a plot to distract attention so Putin could invade Ukraine without much reporter protest. And it worked!
Yeah yeah I know this is not what really happened, but it is as good as any other theory at this point.

What you idiots are missing is that black hole time travel (BHTT) is hard to control. So if he BHTT'd to kill Hitler but was just a little late Hitler still would have done all the stuff but this guy kills him before he gets a chance to commit suicide. It's not perfect but people would still be all like, "hey man you tried your best," or "at least you got to kill Hitler." It would still be worth doing.

Posted by: Dark Matter at March 20, 2014 09:28 AM (JtwS4)
Here's another theory. Say the aircraft had a fire, and the electrical is screwed up. 777 is fly by wire, and that is also screwed up. The pilot gets the AP to work and uses it to try and course to nearest, safest airport in Malaysia, but is overcome before he completes the programming. Plane continues on last course until it runs out of fuel.

Three airports I landed at in Siberia had burned out airplane hulks somewhere on the property. They just leave the wreckage there.
Same thing on Andros. Miss that runway and it's just not worth fishing you out of the marl.

Kobe Bryant Kicks The Dear Leader Worship Into Hyperdrive: Obama Could Play In The NBA
The only thing he'd be qualified to do is be towel boy, and he doesn't have the work ethic for that.

Black holes have mass, spin and charge, that's it.
The singularity is a point but the event horizon (distance past which everything falls forever) has radius (IDRC if it' can be non-spherical from the spin?). They also have a Roche limit which is the closest you can go before gravitational tides tear you apart.
An MBH with an event horizon large enough to swallow a plane whole in one 500 mph pass would have catastrophic effects anywhere near Earth let alone swooping thru the atmosphere.

Anyway, lucky thing that CNN is finally starting to get to the bottom of this story.
