Interesting story about black holes orbiting each other and causing quasar flashes every 12 years.
This is racist.

“Spin of a Monster Black Hole”
who could that be?
#Blackholesmatter
I would like to shoot a neutron star into a black hole at light speed and see what happens.
If you had two galactic class black holes orbiting each other so that their event horizons overlapped could you fly a ship perpendicular into and through the overlap and escape?
Here I thought it was about BLM.
Don’t Black Holes Mattter?
If it’s spinning that fast, shouldn’t it be spewing black matter all over the place?
How about doing the neutron dance at light speed near a black hole?
And as for energy? Meh.
What's spinning at one third the speed of light? The event horizon? The center of the black hole has zero rotational speed.
It could have rotational speed it doesn’t want to show you.
I think it is the accretion disk which is the disk of material orbiting and falling into the black hole. They must be measuring doppler shift from the light flashes when the smaller black hole passes through the disk twice in its elliptical orbit.
1/3 the speed of light?
That’s nothing. Scientists are still trying to develop technology to measure the spin rate of MSNBC.

Be sure to put on safety goggles first.

My question too.
Since when does velocity relate to frequency without amy qualification?
Common core accepted science teaching is really showing.
Thanks MtnClimber. [singing] we're fixing a monster supermassive black hole where the rain gets in...
