* Black Holes: a Real Obstacle

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

by PROFESSOR JOHN TAYLOR Of King's College, London.
Physics tries to unify our picture of the universe. But since the early 1900s it has been torn by the philosophical difference between relativity which wants the universe to be continuous, and quantum theory which wants it to be particulate. Black holes seem to make the unity goal even less attainable.
