My conception of space is that of a vacuum, there is no air within that vacuum yet somehow planets still form, and galaxies get created. If we were on earth the way a vacuum works is by pulling air in while expelling the air out at the same time by a mechanical motion. Yet somehow a black hole can form, pulling everything into it, and expelling it out as something else.
Space isn't nothing, nothing in fact, doesn't exist, everything is some form of energy, and energy cannot be destroyed, only turned into a different form of energy. So I question whether a vacuum could pull so strongly that it eventually turns into a black hole, or a gravity well.
We don't fully understand the powers and forces at work in the universe, all we have are theories on how things work, and just like history has shown us, sometimes we are wrong in our estimations of science. Doctors from the past used to think that blowing smoke up your arse would cure an assortments of ailments, which was totally false, and has led to the term "Blowing smoke up your ass."
There is a power in space, which we could harness if we understood how it worked and could create it on a smaller scale. There is a machine called a Hadron collider, and it basically sends particles through a circular tube within a vacuum at near the speed of light, when these particles collide with each other at those speeds, scientists record what happens and see what new particles and physics are formed from the process. The reason I am explaining this is because in that same process, sometimes a miniature black hole is formed for maybe a millionth of a second and then is gone.
They don't make the black holes on purpose, it's a normal reaction from the process of the particles smashing into each other, but if they could recreate it, perhaps we would have a new version of clean energy. To create a Vacuum In Space within a vacuum.
