If you burn a book, the information survives in the ash. If you throw a book into a black hole, it should be gone forever. Stephen Hawking proved that black holes slowly evaporate into random heat, threatening to delete the history of everything that ever fell inside. This terrifying realization broke physics, starting a fifty-year war between Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity. We explore the radical, reality-bending solutions fighting to save the universe's memory—from giant, planet-sized tangles of strings to stars frozen in a state of eternal collapse.#podcast #sciencepodcast #spacepodcast #astronomy #cosmology #astrophysics #physics #spacemysteries #extraterrestriallife #quantumgravity #deeppodcast #newpodcast #newepisode #learnonsound #interstellarpodcast #universe #curiosity #spaceexploration #futureofscience #DeepDiveSpace
