The Science Asylum | Black Holes can SPIN?!? @ScienceAsylum | Uploaded 5 years ago | Updated 1 hour ago
Most sources talk about Schwarzschild black holes, but those don't spin. Most are what we call Kerr black holes, or rotating black holes, surrounded by a region called an ergosphere. The spacetime around them is not only stretched, but also twisted, leading to some strange phenomena.
