Astrophysics has a long history of impacting physics: e.g., Newton’s and Einstein’s theories of gravity, the ongoing research on dark matter and dark energy, the equation of state at supranuclear densities, and the solar neutrino puzzle. Likewise, astrophysical BHs have the potential to revolutionize classical BH physics; after all, the only real BHs we know, or are likely ever to know, are astrophysical BHs. But how can BHBs contribute to the study of BH physics? Very roughly, we envisage a five-stage evolutionary program that is presently well underway.
