summary

This New York Times article discusses Stephen Hawking's ongoing research and theories on black holes. It highlights his findings that suggest black holes are not entirely black and instead emit radiation known as Hawking radiation. The article explains how Hawking's work challenged the prevailing notion that nothing could escape the intense gravitational pull of a black hole. It also delves into the implications of Hawking radiation, including its potential to lead to the eventual evaporation and disappearance of black holes over time. The article provides insights into Hawking's groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of black holes and their behavior.
