Black holes keep ‘burping up’ stars they destroyed years earlier, and astronomers don’t know why::Years after ripping stars to shreds, 24 black holes suddenly flared up with radio waves in inexplicable ‘burping’ bouts. Half of all star-killing black holes may experience the same.
It sounds like the matter isn’t coming out of the black hole, but actually the accretion disc that is in the process of being sucked into the black hole so we aren’t breaking the event horizon threshold as title suggests

It wouldn’t be pop-sci if it didn’t have a misleading clickbait title!
It couldn’t be the actual black hole past the event horizon, right? It would logically seem that inescapable precludes burping or farting matter
This is my assumption. Clearly the accretion disk isn’t the point of no return, or maybe stuff on the inside = past point of no return, stuff on the outside can get flung off?
If I remember correctly the point of no return is called the Event Horizon.
Yes
Ok so black holes are just teleporters to other dimensions right?!
It’s a one way teleporter to a single dimension, because you’re entire mass will be a single imperceptible point.
I equate it to a can of spray cheese. Small hole, puffy cheese.
It’ll teleport you from the third dimension to the first dimension.
So would it be appropriate to say they are passing gas?
I’d say so…
Based on that username, I feel like you’d be a subject matter expert.
What if we’re currently travelling through one right now and we forgot to turn the oven off
I wonder if it could be caused by other celestial bodies captured in the black hole’s orbit. Some new mass approaches the accretion disk and the gravitational pull slingshots some of the disk’s matter out.
For the forces required to “pull” the matter out, we would need another singularity, but even then, that wouldn’t show this.
Galactic indigestion
Like whole stars or?
those are the bad stars that are not wanted for the next universe that starts at the end of the black hole. our sun is definitely getting burped up in the future. :D
Cheers.

Gee, Rick, I-I think they prefer to be called African-American holes now, y’know?
Shut up Wesley!
