Spin up of a Supermassive Black Hole

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

How fast can a black hole spin? This question is still debated, but theorists use the Kerr solution to Einstein's General Theory of Relativity to model rapidly rotating black holes. One prediction is that matter entering a maximally rotating black hole should be last seen in a specific way. This image illustrates the incredible forces at play.
