Description: “Beauty” and “black holes” are terms not often associated with each other. However, those of us who study black holes often do find them beautiful in a way: a beauty of the mind. My story is an intertwined narrative of the physics and astronomy of black holes, my love for them, and – not least – the pleasure we can all find in telling others about our beautiful Universe.
Bio: The Society of Physics Students (SPS) at The University of Central Arkansas is incorporates outreach, demonstrations, tutoring and guest speakers into our SPS Chapter.
