JWST spots giant black holes all over the early universe
Can someone who really knows this stuff clarify my understanding?<p>I've been given to understand that black holes remain a physics theory that has not been directly observed or proven.<p>I thought that we had a fair amount of observational evidence that suggests their existence, but no "smoking gun" proof of it, and that these types of "observed a black hole" articles are a little misleading - that in reality, what was observed was much indirect, interpreted data that is consistent with black hole theory, but could also be something else.<p>Am I off base here?
