Curious Universe Video Episode: The Mind-bending Math Inside Black Holes

  • Released Tuesday, December 17, 2024

This is a special video edition of NASA's podcast, Curious Universe.
Black holes are mysterious, far away, and can bend the fabric of reality itself—but we're learning more about them all the time. Ronald Gamble, a NASA theoretical astrophysicist, uses math, computer coding, and a dash of creativity to peer inside some of the universe's most extreme objects. We'll explore what it would feel like to get pulled into a black hole and what people get wrong about black holes. And we'll answer questions from curious listeners, including, "What would happen if a black hole ate nothing but magnetized material?"
