Ep. 2: Black Holes - Everything You Need to Know (& More)

Nothin' but Space

17-05-2021 • 18 mins

I know, I know - black holes are super confusing. Don't worry, though, because I've got your back! In this episode, we'll go over everything you'll ever need to know about black holes, including what they are, how they form, and the various regions inside of one. If you've ever been stumped by the black hole's singularity, event horizon, Cauchy horizon, or ergosphere - tune in to have your doubts dismissed today.


(NOTE: at 2:55, I say that the gravitational field is determined by "mg" and is therefore constant, which was a thoughtless error on my part - the field is not constant around a blackhole! It varies depending on distance!)
