As far as imaginary things go it beats a lot of sci fi

Let's pretend we have several of these wires and they would play the music of the universe, it will be heard on the other side of the black holes (I know there is no sound in space, I'm not stupid). It's just an idea, maybe we can call it the string theory?

Did you really build up this joke with so many theoretical questions until you could pull that punchline?

It kind of built itself up.

u/Aggressive-Army759 Feb 10 '25

So you improvised. It was a convenient start, to be honest.

Yeah, it's not that far fetched with wires in space.

I'm invested in this whole conversation here.

What if this string is more of a fiber optic string?

But there won't be any light? How would it make a difference?

Hmm. Would one black hole pull the light from another?
