Charlie Wood

Charlie Wood, a physics writer for Quanta Magazine, dives into the challenges of singularities in black holes and the Big Bang. He discusses how these cosmic phenomena break our current understanding of gravity, pushing physicists to explore extreme conditions at the edges of space and time. The conversation highlights the struggle to unify general relativity with quantum mechanics, revealing both the scientific hurdles and philosophical implications. Wood even adds a humorous twist by discussing the concept of sonifying black hole data for a truly unique auditory experience.
