MECO's instead of Black Holes?

When an object gets very dense and hot, subatomic particles start popping in and out of existence inside it in huge numbers, producing copious amounts of radiation. Outward pressure from this radiation halts the collapse so the object remains a hot ball of plasma rather than becoming a black hole.<p><hr /></p></p></blockquote> <br />Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetospheric_Eternally_Collapsing_Objects <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

Because of distance and lack of right technology a very large number of theories of astronomy/astrophysics are unverifiable. As a result theories in these fields flourished as mainstream acceptable theories. No other scientific field enjoys such freedom.<br /><br />Theoretically we may now be able to calculate how long it takes to cook a 1lb rare medium steak inside a blackhole, eventhough we haven't seen a picture of blackhole in visible spectrum.<br /><br />Its just a matter of time, many astrophysics theories will crumble as our technology improves, not sure which one will go first, big bang or blackholes. General relativity may keep blackhole alive for a while. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font size="2" color="#ff0000"><strong>Earth is Boring</strong></font> </div>

I'm personally hoping that gas model solar theory crumbles first. <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> It seems to be a natural consequence of our points of view to assume that the whole of space is filled with electrons and flying electric ions of all kinds. - Kristian Birkeland </div>

Isn't plasma a gas? If so, then the sun is both gas and plasma.
