Scientists Apply Revolutionary 30 Year-Old Principle and Find Black Holes Could Be Like Holograms

What researchers have done is apply the theory of the holographic principle to black holes. In this way, their mysterious thermodynamic properties have become more understandable: focusing on predicting that these bodies have a great entropy and observing them in terms of quantum mechanics, you can describe them just like a hologram: they have two dimensions, in which gravity disappears, but they reproduce an object in three dimensions.

According to new research, black holes could be like a hologram, where all the information is amassed in a 2D surface able to reproduce a 3D image.

We can all picture that incredible image of a black hole that traveled around the world about a year ago...
