Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
- Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
- Keep it rooted (on topic).
- No spam.
- Infographics welcome, get schooled.
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Us developing an actual black hole would be one of the best things humanity has ever done. It would kinda be like inventing techniques to make fire.
We could throw shit around the orbit of the black hole and get fusion. Not just deuterium fusion! Even proton proton fusion. Our energy needs would be solved practically forever.
We could conduct a crazy amount of experiments on the black hole, see quantum effects of gravity and whatnot.
Maybe we could build one of em Alcubierre drives that don't need exotic matter?
Pretty sure any black hole we create would evaporate from hawking radiation before it could be used for anything outside of research.
If we could make Jupiter a black hole, would that be stable enough to not radiate away? Other big body we have access to is the sun and I feel we would suffer more side effects of turning that into a hole compared to Jupiter
Scientists care too much about if we could, they forget to ask if we should.
