Is Singularity an Illusion? The True Nature of Black Holes

Black holes have long fascinated both scientists and enthusiasts alike. In most popular descriptions, they are said to contain a “singularity” at their center a point of infinite density and zero volume. Yet “infinity” is not an observable feature of nature; rather, it signals the limits of our current theories. But what if black holes are not “infinities” at all, but instead the lasting imprints of stars in spacetime? If so, what lies at their center may not be emptiness, but something far more familiar: an extremely small, extremely dense, yet still law-abiding accumulation of matter and energy.
