What is a Black Hole? - Stephen Hawking's final theory

The video explores Stephen Hawking's theory that black holes might have 'soft hair,' a metaphor for low-energy particles that preserve information at the event horizon. It explains black holes using Einstein's theory of relativity, contrasting it with Newton's view of gravity. The video delves into the black hole information paradox, suggesting that information isn't destroyed but remains as photons on the event horizon. The discussion highlights the theoretical nature of black hole research and the ongoing quest to resolve these cosmic mysteries.
