New theoretical research suggests that black holes may not contain the infinitely dense singularities long predicted by classical physics.
Physicist Francesco Di Filippo proposes that electromagnetic repulsion and Hawking radiation could prevent total gravitational collapse, eliminating mysterious boundaries known as Cauchy horizons.
If correct, the findings imply that the internal structure of black holes might be explainable using existing quantum theories rather than requiring a completely new framework for quantum gravity.
The work could fundamentally reshape how scientists understand spacetime and the deepest regions of the cosmos.
