This is a recent article I wrote describing some amazing properties of black holes.

In it, I explain some of the remarkable similarities between the mechanics of black holes and the laws of thermodynamics, which define the relationships between quantities, such as temperature, energy, and entropy.

The article was published on the Medium publication Cantor's Paradise, the #1 Medium publication for math stories.

Science question: is it possible to block or repel gravity, even theoretically?
