Astronomy Cast Ep. 767: Black Holes in Extreme Circumstances

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCqRhiApwMQ


Season 19


Hosted by: Fraser Cain and Dr. Pamela L. Gay


Streamed live on Oct 6, 2025.


You can only describe a black hole by its mass and its spin. And
maybe it’s charge. But allow us to propose a new criteria: the
personal experience. Some black holes have seen things…
Experienced the laws of physics at their most extreme. And today
we’ll tell their stories. The more of the sky we observe, the
more bizarre situations we find black holes in. Let's explore!
