However, these two particles are entangled, according to quantum entanglement theory two particles share information even if they're millions of light-years apart. The particle that falls into the black hole is destroyed with a burst of radiation. Where does this temperature come from? Basically, imagine two particles that share information between them one falls into the black hole, and one does not. This theory, first described by Stephen Hawking in the 1970s, suggests that black holes have a measurable temperature. The problem deals with the idea of Hawking radiation. But actually thinking about the question is not simple at all. One question plaguing physicists right now seems simple enough: " Do black holes destroy information?" Cox said. Black holes pose many conundrums, such as "these things from which nothing can escape apparently have a temperature and glow and evaporate and radiate away," Cox said. One way scientists are studying the idea of emergent space-time is through black holes, Cox said. The theory suggests that there are even more layers of the universe to peel back. This concept, known as "emergent space-time," is the idea that space and time are not fixed, unchanging things but rather made up of constituent parts, like how the atom comprises neutrons, protons and electrons (and those particles are made up of even more particles).
