Can you ELI5 relativistic frame dragging and process?
Frame dragging is when matter drags spacetime along with it. Roughly think of a the wake of a boat disturbing other things in the water.
The misalignment of the black holes axis of spin, and the axis of the accretion disk is causing interesting frame dragging effects.
