Red Pills of the Week

Red Pills of the Week — March 2nd | Mysterious Universe: "Our first pill takes us close to the Cosmic version of the Leviathan monster: a black hole. For the first time scientists have been able to calculate the spin rate of a super-massive black hole, and were surprised to find out it was spinning at 84% the speed of light, which would be as fast as the laws of physics would permit. And just think that this galactic behemoth is 2 million miles in diameter, and its YOUR head the one that’ll start spinning uncontrollably."
