Is it possible the effects of "Dark Flow" are caused by a Black Hole?

As I understand it when people refer to Dark Flow they're referring to a certain location in the Universe which is mysteriously pulling galaxies towards it. Is it conceivable this may be being caused by a Black Hole? If I remember rightly the one of the favoured scenarios of the Ultimate Fate of the Universe is the Big Crunch in which the Super Massive Black Holes at the centre of each galaxy are drawn to each-other before merging and become much stronger. What is the possibility that this maybe what's causing Dark Flow?

    Whatever is causing the dark flow phenomenon cannot directly be observed, it is simply too far away. The galaxies that are affected by its pull are a lot closer which means the "body" outside our observable universe must have an immense gravitational field, effective even from its huge distance away, a field greater than that of any super massive black hole we have ever observed.

    Such a large field could theoretically come from an exceptionally massive black hole, or another unknown body, such as another "universe", a popular theory.

    i think of you're extraordinarily at a loss for words. The LHC has not something to do with dark count number. dark count number is a hypothetical variety of count number theory as much as clarify a extensive distinction between the estimated mass of galaxies and the talked approximately mass of the comparable galaxies. because of the fact the subject we can see can in basic terms account for an extraordinarily small proportion of the mass that galaxies might desire to have (judging via their gravitational result on different issues) there might desire to be a extensive volume of count number we can't see immediately. those products, approximately which all of us comprehend next to not something, is talked approximately as dark count number. the massive Hadron Collider isn't designed to create black holes of any length. It has not been not on time because 2005; it became into in basic terms purely complete in September 2008. It has in basic terms "failed" as quickly as.

    Frame dragging has been proved beyond a shadow of a doubt. Please expound on Dark Flow.

    Source(s): It has recently been shown that massive black holes rotate close to the speed of light, just an idea of mine but centrifual forces would cause the massive black hole to turn into a ring instead of a point. Which would be better to view, a ring black hole or a naked black hole?
