For me, whether he wrote his own work of if he was just a golem for the bad guys, I find the man most useful for discrediting "Science!", because of his recanting black holes before his death.
Besides disproving galactic red shift recently, there hasn't been a more interesting piece of astrophysics in a decade at least.
Basically, galactic red shift being disproven means that the universe isn't expanding infinitely, because not only is movement not observed but a lack of movement was.
Since the galaxy isn't expanding, there cannot have been a single point of origin. No big bang. Probably THE pre-eminent theory used to push atheism in the 20th century was a lie all along.
How readily does that work when considering whether such a point of origin was static in the first place and/or the resultant universe itself is also static?
It's not to suggest that the galaxy is static, it still rotates observably.
But in a frictionless environment, if there was a common point of origin then acceleration away from the point would be constant and unremitting. Due of course to lack of a contrary force, and such a force would be compressing on a galactic scale which is just ridiculous.
The universe and the galaxy are very different things, and even at the lower end of the two we lack observational data to draw much more of a conclusion about other galaxies than simply that they probably exist.
In any case it's largely irrelevant. We haven't even made it out of our solar system yet, so casting our gaze to other galaxies is largely academic time wasting.
I saw it in a scientific journal a former employer was subscribed to. I used to do satellite systems engineering so we had a few of those. The DoD space community was in a tizzy about it a while ago.

Recanting Black Holes? Explain.
What it says on the tin. He recanted his claim that nothing can escape a black hole.
Oh, I thought he was meaning Black Holes didn't exist. I would have been a little sad about that.
Singularities exist, but at this point we know no more about them than before.
I need to read up on that

Ohhh. Ok now I do remember hearing about that. I guess that does make one wonder how big the universe is. Or if it’s one of many universes

I need some sources that there is insufficient redshift to show universal expansion, because I can't seem to find any and it's a big deal if true.
