The Map of Black Holes | Black Holes Explained

Check out Brilliant here: https://brilliant.org/DOS/ Get the Map of Black Holes poster and Professor Astro Cat books here: https://store.dftba.com/collections/domain-of-science This is the Map of Black Holes which isn’t a map of where all the black holes are in space, it’s a concept map of the subject of black holes: laying out our current knowledge of them. Their structure including Schwarzschild radius or event horizon, the singularity, photon sphere, innermost stable orbit, accretion disk, Hawking radiation and the difference between rotating and non-rotating black holes. I also look at the evidence for their existence, the many ways we have detected them though x-ray astronomy, gravitational wave astronomy and radio astronomy. Then the many outstanding mysteries still to be solved including wormholes, the holographic theory and information paradox. They are very fascinating objects indeed. #blackholes #space #DomainOfScience --- Get My Posters Here ---- DFTBA Store: https://store.dftba.com/collections/domain-of-science RedBubble Store: https://www.redbubble.com/people/DominicWalliman I have also made posters available for personal or educational use which you can find here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/95869671@N08/ -- Some Awesome People --- And many thanks to my $10 supporters and above on Patreon, you are awesome!
