Binary Black Holes

Binary black holes! :O

"As the first time such a binary black hole has been confirmed to exist in a quasar, the discovery has repercussions for their study. The binary structure may be more common than originally thought."

"Just last week, astrophysicist Stephen Hawking posited that a person passing through a black hole -- which, with its massive gravitational force, is like a bottomless pit that not even light can escape -- may end up in another universe."

Cross-linking this article: https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn28090-stephen-hawking-says-he-has-a-way-to-escape-from-a-black-hole/ Stephen Hawking said:

"You probably know that black holes are stars that have collapsed under their own gravity, producing gravitational forces so strong that even light can’t escape.Anything that falls inside is thought to be ripped apart by the massive gravity, never to been seen or heard from again. What you may not know is that physicists have been arguing for 40 years about what happens to the information about the physical state of those objects once they fall in. Quantum mechanics says that this information cannot be destroyed, but general relativity says it must be – that’s why this argument is known as the information paradox. I propose that the information is stored not in the interior of the black hole as one might expect, but on its boundary, the event horizon."

The "Right" Kind of "Wrong"

We’re all seeking that special person who is right for us. But if you’ve been through enough relationships, you begin to suspect there’s no right person, just different flavors of wrong. Why is this? Because you yourself are wrong in some way, and you seek out partners who are wrong in some complementary way. But it takes a lot of living to grow fully into your own wrongness. And it isn’t until you finally run up against your deepest demons, your unsolvable problems—the ones that make you truly who you are—that we’re ready to find a lifelong mate. Only then do you finally know what you’re looking for. You’re looking for the wrong person. But not just any wrong person: it's got to be the right wrong person—someone you lovingly gaze upon and think, “This is the problem I want to have." ―Andrew Boyd
