I love when science and ancient traditons begin embracing!!

Meet the Bizarro universe version of a black hole: a black string.

These hypothetical objects might form if our universe has hidden extra dimensions beyond the three of space and one of time that we can see, scientists say. A new study of five-dimensional black strings offers a glimpse into how these strange objects might evolve over time - if indeed they exist at all.

Picture this

While it's difficult to visualize a five-dimensional object in our three-dimensional space, black strings would be cylindrical, researchers said. Think of a three-dimensional spherical black hole that's copied and stacked out in one direction to create an oblong shape.

"One of the problems that comes with thinking about higher dimensions is it's hard to even picture these things," said researcher Luis Lehner of the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, the University of Guelph and the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research, all in Canada.

Like black holes, black strings would be created when matter is squished so dense that the curvature of space-time becomes so large that even light cannot escape.

Lehner and colleague Frans Pretorius of Princeton University in New Jersey used a computer simulation to study how black strings would behave. Their results are detailed in a recent issue of the journal Physical Review Letters.

Holes and strings

The simulations reveal that a black string probably wouldn't be stable for long. Any small perturbation or deformation of its shape would set off a cascading pattern. [Animation of a black string]

Say, for example, the cylinder was squeezed slightly in its center, giving it the shape of an hourglass. Gravity would then tug at the neck, causing it to stretch out until the object becomes a set of spherical black holes connected by a filament of black string. Then, on the string segment, smaller black holes would likely form like beads on a wire, in a process that would go on repeating.

While the simulations would have required too much computer power to trace this process too long, the researchers say they can guess what the end point might befrom the three generations they were able to observe. For certain models, small perturbations to the extra dimensions would probably cause all the black holes and strings to ultimately merge into one giant black hole.

Hidden dimensions

While the idea of extra dimensions may sound wacky, physical theories suggest it's a distinct possibility. Just how many hidden dimensions exist depends on the theory, but some versions of the popular string theory, for example, postulate we live in a 10- or 11-dimensional universe.

"If there are extra dimensions they might be very, very small - little curled up dimensions" that would not be visible in our macroscopic three-dimensional space, Pretorius told LiveScience.

If this is the case, we may not be able to recognize the hidden dimensions in everything, including black holes.

"The things we know of as black holes might really be black strings but we can't see the other dimensions," Pretorius explained.

And black holes aren't the only possible black objects that could exist in higher-dimensions. Another hypothetical black object is a black Saturn, which would look like a spherical black hole surrounded by a donut-shaped torus. Or there might be black rings, which would simply be ring-shaped.

"Strings versus rings depends largely on the type of extra dimensions you have," Pretorius said

Thank you for sharing this. I hope it is alright to share what I have heard and read regarding this from the Mayan Elders themselves.

The Mayan Elders are speaking of these things, the many notions and ideas put forward by those outside of the Mayan Tradition about the Mayan Tradition. The Mayan Elders are concerned because they have another view regarding their own teachings and traditions and Calendar and its meaning. They have another view regarding 2012. They see it as the New Dawn which will happen right here on this Earth but they feel we must all work to help manifest this New Dawn of Light and Wisdon and help to heal the Earth and all our relations. We must make it so.

I have heard the Mayan Elders are traveling to many sacred places around this Earth to heal this Earth and they are doing ceremonies to counter the distortion of their traditions by other people who have not understood the true meaning of their tradition and who have gone out and created much fear. The Elders are concerned about the destructive nature of these distorted ideas and fears and are working to counter the fear and negativity of thoughts and feelings about 2012 through healing ceremonies around the world.

The Mayan Elders say of their calendar and 2012 that it is the end of a cycle of their calendar and not the end of this world. They say this happened many times before. They have indicated it is a time of light and wisdom coming to fruition on our planet...a New Dawn and beginning but it still depends on us to awaken to that New Dawn. In the meantime they are working to counter the idea the world is coming to an end and all the negative ideas of destruction and fear because they do not want people to make matters worse in the world through focusing on the fear and negativity. Now it is a time to heal and see a better vision for all the world and hold that and work with the Creator to bring this to be. Yes there are challenging times ahead but this world and planet can heal and they work for that.

I also would not feel good about "escaping to a better world" and leave this beautiful planet and its plants animals and humans to suffer. I do believe this world itself is in transition and this one is the world that will heal...but I do feel I have experienced parallel worlds and I do think we are visited. The Energy of our planet feels like it has been shifting for a long while now. Whatever the case it does seem change is coming. Many blessings.

Since all of this comes from the Mayan tradition it might be wise to listen to the Elders of this tradition and they are here on this Earth and have not disappeared though they did abandon a long time ago those ancient sites where the pyramids are.

This is exactly what i have felt all along since my 1st enounter with ET...but the parrallel earth i think exists now. we shift to go there....
