Rogue Supermassive Black Holes with Yale’s Dr. Michael Tremmel

Astronomers are working to understand what happens when black holes are set free to roam the Milky Way.

Yale’s Dr. Michael Tremmel spoke to John Michael Godier on this episode of Event Horizon about rogue supermassive black holes. They also discussed binary black holes and the physics of galaxy mergers. As well as what would happen if a black hole came near our solar system?
