Eubanks, Hubert C., (Nov 2018) Poster Topic Thermodynamics A Review and a Postulate Guest Presenter at the Symposium on Space Innovations By Georgia Tech, Atlanta, GA.
Abstract: Understanding the laws of thermodynamics help frame our collective knowledge of the universe to assist in searching for the way our universe works. As we make new discoveries and theorize about what may exists in our universe (i.e. white holes) it is important to revisit existing knowledge as it may give us new angles in which to view our current understanding of various phenomenon. Information for this poster has been pulled from previous research and subject matter experts. Black holes are said to increase entropy and theoretical white holes are said to decrease entropy and extrude matter. White holes, while theoretically possible because they are they are the dialectic of black holes, are most likely nonexistent as they would decrease entropy breaking the second law of thermodynamics.
