NASA about to announce something Big?, page 9

if they found a primordial black hole would that mean that there is a 4th dimension? what if they discovered a 4th dimension.

We already know there is a fourth dimension. Its time.
No I dont beleive the discovery of a Primordial black hole would change our understanding of how many dimensions there are. My understanding is its simply a very small black hole that could only have been formed during the big bang.

A primordial black hole is a hypothetical type of black hole that is formed not by the gravitational collapse of a star but by the extreme density of matter present during the universe's early expansion.

I got tired of wading through all the guesses wasting space here, so forgive me if this has already been addressed.
If it hasn't though, I'd like those 500 points from the poster who wagered them. this information has already been leaked I think. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm betting this is it, because it's the ONLY thing I can think of that they've been looking for for that long that is consistant with what is currently known about our universe:

Lost and Found: X-Ray Telescope Locates Missing Matter
www.nasa.gov...

Let me know if this is it or not.

Although I don't believe NASA is going to announce anything about Planet X, I believe the reason the media is talking about it openly in Australia

(news.sbs.com.au...),

is because they're soon going to be able to see Planet X in the sky. There are already pictures of it coming from New Zealand and South Africa.

And the ONLY reason I'm entertaining the slight possibility of NASA announcing Planet X is because they would effectively quell any mass panic when people start seeing a sizeable glowing red orb in the sky in the next few years. And furthermore, if they don't announce it now, they're going to have to sometime in the near future......because if people start seeing this thing, without any forewarning, they're going to freak out.

It's also possible that during times when the universe is collapsing (during a big crunch) a specific amount of matter reaches critical density and thus creates another big bang. This is basically the same thing as red giants pulsating in and out. The material spreads out, becomes sparse, then the material falls back onto itself because it's gravity is stronger than the outward momentum. The material collapses onto itself again and some material inside the star reaches the point where nuclear reactions can, again, take place. This forces the material outward again. It's a cycle.

I think it has something to do with this:

Why would NASA make a big new announcement of something they've already posted and released to the public? I'm not convinced.

Due to the fact that the Chanda X-ray observatory and ground-based observations have been combined for this astronomical object tells me it is obviously something extremely far away. Black Holes emit X-rays therefore that's what I'm thinking it has something to do with. Some scientists have theorised that there is a black hole at the center of every galaxy and that they are critical to galaxy formation. It is even though that we have a black hole at the center of our galaxy, but no direct observation of a black hole has even taken place. It could be that somehow these observations were all combined to form an image of the black hole at the center of our galaxy. But that's just a guess..

One of the things I learned in my research of this topic was that NASA has news conferences on a seven day cycle and announces the time and date seven days before the event, so this much is not news and not indicative alone of anything new or exciting.

That NASA claims to have found something that astronomers have been looking for more that 50 years is exciting, but that doesn't mean that the announcement will be earth shattering.

I already suggested the black hole at the center of the galaxy that has been extrapolated from other phenomena in the area, but other likely candidates would be a spinning black hole or a medium brown dwarf.

I'm not sure if those have been searched for for fifty years, but they are things that have been suggested that Chandra would be perfect for detecting in concert with ground-based instruments and would be scientifically significant.
