The observed direction in galaxies, if true, may be a hint towards an idea that is much older, and it involves the way the universe can be modeled as an information system and how those information systems function around event horizons. It's hard to even give a fast summary without dropping an essay about a lot of our misconceptions about time and space and the Planck scale, etc. But the most we may get from it might be a better understanding of things like the actual shape of our universe and why/how it's expanding and other observational goals.

Do you have an essay you could throw at me, or some kind of video that explains it in reasonably understandable detail?

[-] ameancow@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

I highly recommend PBS Spacetime, they did a number of videos on black holes, information and the holographic universe principle. Otherwise, I replied here with a short essay, but reading it I realize how woefully inadequate my description is.

I follow PBS Spacetime already, so chances are I've seen the videos you're thinking of and can't remember them offhand. I'll give your link a read tho, thanks!
