Three scientists won the 2020 Nobel Prize in Physics on Tuesday for advancing our understanding of the interstellar phenomenon known as black holes.

Britain’s Roger Penrose, professor at the University of Oxford, won half the prize for his work using mathematics to prove that black holes are a direct consequence of the general theory of relativity.

German scientist Reinhard Genzel of the Max Planck Institute and University of California, Berkeley, and American astronomer Andrea Ghez of the University of California, Los Angeles, shared the other half of the prize for discovering that an invisible and extremely heavy object governs the orbits of stars at the centre of our galaxy.

Ghez is only the fourth woman to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics, after Marie Curie in 1903, Maria Goeppert-Mayer in 1963 and Donna Strickland in 2018.

The award comes with a gold medal and more than $1.1 million.

Cool... interesting because I will never see one (from afar that is) nor will I go to space. Anything to do with space is a need to know for me.
CONGRATULATIONS on the Nobel Prize you three (a special congratulations to Andrea Ghez)!

Congratulations to the winners. Too bad our fellows in the medical professions are being subject to such disrespect these days.

like the balance in all aspects of life black stars are opposite of light stars (the sun) where light starts emit light, black stars subtract it its probrably how the universe balances energy and im really high right now

I look forward to finding out how we can harness the power of a blackhole and turn them into stargates or some sort of massive PowerStation.

I dont understand the fascination with black holes. Lets focus on dark matter

Three scientists were awarded the Nobel Prize for their work on black holes. The Trump Administration immediately objected and said that research should be directed towards white holes as well.

Genesis 1 "In the Beginning, GOD created the Heavens and the Earth" Some scientists are beginning to figure that out.
