I guess the next questions would be
- How fast? Really fast? Does this question even make sense?
- What does this say about the inside of the event horizon? Does it say anything? Is this black hole leaking real information?
- Is black hole spin quantized like quantum spin? Is it spin-up or spin-down?
That’s really cool! It must have been hard to take that incredibly low res picture, and extract this much information out of!
Good video covering black hole spinning in the film Interstellar:
