Has anyone read the book "Singularity"? It's about black holes and if you don't know what a black hole it, you won't care for the next podcast I'm about to mention. Dr. Jack's Soapbox Symposiums does more to explain black holes, quantum mechanics, thermo dynamics, and primordial black holes than any professor I've learned under. It's all stemmed from the novel Singularity which deals with a phenomenal event that happened in June of 1908 in Tunguska in Siberia. Two major theories have followed that even for a century with either a meteor or a comet streaming through the atmosphere and exploding well into the air and cause extreme damage all around and sending shock waves around the globe twice. Then in the early 70's a couple of bright Texas boys posited that maybe it was something else such as a PBH (primordial black hole), an extremely small, microscopic black hole, could have caused the event.
Anyway, if you love physics, you'll love this symposium. Dr. Jack tries to explain thigs in every day language, but at times it gets so far out there that you might have to replay a chapter over again to get the full drift of what he is saying. He takes us from the beginning to the end and then tries to give creedence to the theory that the Tunguska event just might have been a PBH. I know, you probably think as I have that black holes are huge, but there are sub atomic black holes that exist in the universe.
Learn what an Event Horizon is and how big it is. Learn whether or not anything can leave a black hole. What's inside a black hole and how does it form. Must of his stuff is up to date as of 2008, so it isn't ancient science.
I you would want to catch this podcast, you can get the who series at Podiobooks.com You can also get the book Singularity in which Dr Jack's symposiums were inspired. But I must warn you, if you have no interest in physics or how the laws of physics might change now and then, that the law of relativity does't always work, etc, then pass on this. But if you dare to listen, you will learn a lot about who we are and where we come from.
