Navigate In 1969, the physicist Roger Penrose theorized that spacefaring civilizations could generate power by dangling objects into a black hole. For decades, the idea was impossible to test because we have no way of traveling to a — or even surviving the journey. But now a team from the University of Glasgow say they’ve verified the theory with a few modifications, published Monday in the journal Nature Physics.
