Scientific criticism
While the concept of the Photon Belt is a part of New Age philosophy, some parts of the story can be analyzed scientifically. Mainstream scientists assert that there is no scientific evidence for the existence of any sort of "photon belt," and they have made the following statements in support of that conclusion:
A photon is a boson--one of the elementary particle that carry the four forces of physics--in this case, the force that produces light, i.e., the electromagnetic force. To the extent that such a thing as a "photon belt" is physically possible, it would require the gravitational pull of a black hole, with light rays being bent around the black hole near the event horizon, forming a photon sphere.[37]

This equation entails that photon spheres can only exist in the space surrounding an extremely compact object (a black hole or possibly a neutron star[1]).
Disaster looms for gas cloud falling into Milky Way’s central black hole
By 2013, scientists should see outbursts of X-rays and radio waves as the cloud – composed mostly hydrogen and helium gas – gets hotter and is torn asunder. The light emitted around the black hole could increase by a hundredfold to a thousandfold, Quataert calculated.

Examples of neutron stars
PSR J0108-1431 – closest neutron star
PSR J0108-1431 is a solitary pulsar located at a distance of 770 light years in the constellation Cetus.
LGM-1 – the first recognized radio-pulsar
Little green men 1 (LGM-1) was the explanation given to a certain astronomical observation. In 1967, a radio signal was detected in a UK observatory by Jocelyn Bell and Antony Hewish. The signal had a 1.337302088331 second period and 0.04 second pulsewidth.[1]
The signal turned out to be radio emissions from the pulsar CP1919 (the first one recognized as such).

WoW Signal
This region of the sky lies in the constellation
Sagittarius, roughly 2.5 degrees south of the fifth-magnitude star group Chi Sagittarii, and about 3.5 degrees south of the plane of the ecliptic. Tau Sagittarii is the closest easily visible star.

But the black hole has a tremendous gravitational force, and so the gas cloud will fall into the direction of the black hole, be elongated and stretched and look like spaghetti, said Stefan Gillessen, astrophysicist at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics in Munich, Germany, who has been observing our galaxy’s black hole, known as
Sagittarius A* (or Sgr A*), for 20 years.
“So far there were only two stars that came that close to Sagittarius A*,” Gillessen said. “They passed unharmed, but this time will be different: the gas cloud will be completely ripped apart by the tidal forces of the black hole.”
