I wonder what would happen if one black hole shot through another one at high relativistic velocity, instead of spiralling towards one another.
replies(4):
So black holes cannot approach each other faster than the speed of light. And if their trajectories intersect perfectly, they won’t be able to escape each other’s gravity.
A black hole can’t pass “through” another black hole like two bullets hitting each other. More like two incredibly strong magnets hitting each other in midair.
