Stephen Hawking: 'There Is A Way To Escape The Black Hole'

World-renowned physicist Professor Stephen Hawking has made some changes to his theory on black holes. Hawking and two other colleagues explained that it's possible to escape Black Holes. He claims that there is a 'soft halo of electric hair' which could help retrieve data from black holes.

According to esquire.com, in a paper to be published in the Physical Review Letters, Hawking and two colleagues explain how they believe matter is dispelled from a black hole at the end of its life. The paper also questions the assumption that anything that gets sucked in to the huge space object will be lost forever.

The paper will also be able to bring experts a step closer to understanding black holes which are some of the most enigmatic objects in the universe.

Ancient-code.com has reported that at a speaking lecture at Harvard University in Massachusetts, Professor Hawking said, 'They are not the eternal prisons they were once thought.' The New York Times also reported Hawking saying, 'If you feel you are trapped in a black hole, don't give up. There is a way out.'

Professor Hawking has discovered a way 'by which information is returned out of the black hole.' He made headlines back in January when he told the world he had found a possible solution to his black hole 'information paradox'. He had come up with a potential explanation for how black holes can simultaneously erase information and retain it, dailymail.co.uk reported.

Years ago, Professor Hawking made a statement that Black Holes were capable of giving off particles and that the energy that was lost in the process would contribute to the shrinking of the black hole in size which would disappear in the long run. Changes in the theory were then made last year by Hawking himself explaining that Black Holes aren't black, but 'grey,' The "Grey Hole Theory" states that matter and energy are retained for a certain period of time before they are released back into space.

The paper was published on the preprint server arXiv, so the physics community could study his work carefully.
