We can't call a black hole an area of nothing if it contains the severe curvature of the space time continuum, because that is something. When we talk about the size of the black holl we're talking about a shadow - and there's nothing there. In principle, everything comes iso somely. Sos the pawking radiation does not discriminate between ordinary matter or dark mater or any other kind of matter. It can be light coming out in the hawking radiation,. It can be dark matter, paris paris of dark mate. So i'll say dark matter for this. Id, imagine that'. That's a language thing.
Is anything real? Is time just a construct? On this episode, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Matt Kirshen answer your far-out questions about black holes, dark matter, and the universe with astrophysicist Janna Levin.
