    Astronomers have discovered a babyboom of stars occurred in the satellite galaxies surrounding the Milky Way, with no explanation for why they all decided to give birth at the same time. The giant black hole at the center of our galaxy, in Sagittarius, has also been documented as creating stellar nurseries, as if giving birth to new stars is simply what being part of a galaxy is all about. :)

    But seriously it almost seems like the universe, or heavenly bodies in general, are in a cycle where they get sucked into black holes eventually, then bubble out as probably something else, as if the black holes are the "oven."

    Better to be a babyboomer, than watch your fucking population implode!

    I think you hit the nail on the head, and what you are describing is a universal recursion in the principle of identity. Normally, a rock is a rock, and modern science can provide evidence that its a rock. However, a black hole is self-organizing system that violates the principle of identity, and can be described as a macroscopic manifestation of virtual particles, or Chi, the undetectable flow within the empty void that, still manages to make its presence known. Think of it as black holes expressing wave-like behavior and a vague identity, while stars are much easier to measure and identify as particle-like objects.

    I never knew black holes gave birth to new stars. Are we entering singularity or leaving it? Or both?

    A singularity can be thought of as the self-evident truth, that the truth itself is self-organizing. We are the truth, and the existence of singularities giving birth to stars merely reflects the fact our universe is paradoxical and magical. The stars themselves can be considered merely a black hole's infancy.
