To me, a #SupermassiveBlackHole sounds sublime; to a #scientist, it can also be a test of wild hypotheses. “#Astrophysics is an exercise in incredible experiments not runnable on Earth,” Avery Broderick, a theoretical physicist at uWaterloo & at the Perimeter Inst, told me. “And #BlackHoles are an ideal laboratory.”

Broderick says that he studies black holes because they are very simple, theoretically & mathematically.
