flag New study suggests quantum mechanics upholds cosmic censorship, hiding black hole singularities.

flag Recent research in Physical Review Letters indicates that quantum mechanics supports the cosmic censorship hypothesis, a theory proposed by physicist Roger Penrose. flag This hypothesis suggests that singularities, spaces of infinite density in black holes, are always hidden from view. flag The study proposes a quantum Penrose inequality, which suggests that the total entropy of black holes and quantum matter within them never decreases, thus preventing naked singularities. flag While not proven, this finding supports the idea that the laws of physics remain intact and that singularities are not observable.
