Rotating black hole: mass M, spin aFrame dragging near the horizonStatic limit: no observer can stay at rest relative to distant starsErgosphere: region between the static limit and the event horizonParticle splits inside the ergosphere?Penrose process: escaping fragment carries away extra energyBlack hole spin slightly reducedOne fragment falls in with negative energy
