Hello Space Timers,

We're excited to announce that our first ever interview with Dr. Matt Caplan will be officially happening on Wednesday, April 30th at 6pm EST. If you'd like to join the actual live stream join us on https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86957193721

Dr. Matthew Caplan is computational nuclear astrophysicist and longtime Space Time writer. Matt and Matt will discuss how real black holes feast on their surrounds and grow to such enormous sizes. We recommend this paper as primer: https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.07647

If you're a Hypernova, Quasar or Big Bang supporter make sure to join in with the same email that you received this message so we can bring you on as a video panelist.

But if you can't join us on the livestream fret not! The interview will be made available to the full Space Time audience. We're also going to use this tab post to select some question for the Q&A portion. We're going to do the classic hack the comment section as a poll. So if you have a question you'd like Matt to ask Dr. Caplan, post a comment below and if you think someone's question is great, give it a like/heart. A few of the questions with the most likes will get asked*!

Thanks,
Andrew
