However, how can you SEE a black hole? It absorbs all the light and matter near it. That's the evidence. If you see light and matter being drawn
towards a dark spot in space, what do you think? That it's being drawn towards a white-hot neutron
star? Hell no, you think, "This is interesting, let me call my colleauges to see what they think." This sort of thing has long been suspected to be evidence for a black hole, and it looks like they're right. By the way, physical and chemical laws that you say should be applicable everywhere, have you heard about something called Quantum Theory? The world of the
atom, and smaller, is bizzare. To give a example, a photon traveling through time and space, will turn into a electron, emit the electrons anti-particle, the positron; go back in time, pick up a positron, and turn back into a photon. This has to do with Quantum Electro-Dynamics, pioneered by Richard Feynman.
Obviously, you don't often see something just go *pop* and travel back in time? That's what's happening on a quantum level all the time. Look! it just happened several thousand times!
