TED-Ed: Hawking's black hole paradox explained | Fabio Pacucci

The video explores the Black Hole information paradox, a major challenge in physics that questions the conservation of quantum information. It explains how information is defined in physics, particularly quantum information, and how Black Holes seem to violate its conservation. The video discusses Hawking radiation, which suggests Black Holes evaporate, potentially erasing information. Various theories are explored, including the holographic principle, which proposes that the universe's boundary encodes information about 3D objects. The paradox presents an opportunity for new discoveries and a unified theory of everything.

In what ways could the resolution of the Black Hole information paradox change our scientific paradigms?

What are some of the proposed solutions to the information paradox?

Explain the holographic principle and its potential implications for our understanding of the universe.
