Book Details
Table of Contents
It is therefore possible that the largest luminous bodies in the universe may be invisible
Newton, forgive me
One would then find oneself . . . in a geometrical fairyland
There should be a law of nature to prevent a star from behaving in this absurd way!
I'll show those bastards
Only its gravitational field persists
I could not have picked a more exciting time in which to become a physicist
It was the weirdest spectrum I'd ever seen
Why don't you call it a black hole?
Medieval torture rack
Whereas Stephen Hawking has such a large investment in general relativity and black holes and desires an insurance policy
Black holes ain't so black.
