Thread: Great documentary on Black holes/physics

That's the worst introductory line ever...
"There's really nothing that's bigger and scarier than a black hole"

>>Indended

also, I saw that when it was on TV. I frowned a little bit but otherwise it was sort of ok.

I was making a lot of spelling mistakes that night. Not sure what was going on lol.

Perhaps the introductory line was a bit cheesy but you have to realize they are trying to appeal to a broad audience, so the more simplistic it sounds more people are likely to keep watching, as opposed to starting the documentary with a bunch of scientific jargon.

Yeah, it was an okai documentary, and the subject of Black Holes is very interesting. Also, it was kinda fun that I was able to follow much of what they said with high school physics (the equations and stuff, I mean). But it was a bit simplistic.

You should watch the Nova documentary "Monster of the Milky Way." It's about black holes. http://video.pbs.org/video/980039078/

Video isn't available in my region

Fuck pbs.

Never mind, this didn't work. They must have closed that loop hole.

Y tried the link and I saw a Warning Sign instead of the video.
