Abstract: The advent of gravitational waves and black hole imaging has opened a new window into probing the horizon scale of black holes. An important question is whether string theory results for black holes can predict interesting and observable features that current and future experiments can probe. In this article I review the budding and exciting research being done on understanding the possibilities of observing signals from fuzzballs, where black holes are replaced by string-theoretic horizon-scale microstructure. In order to be accessible to both string theorists and black hole phenomenologists, I give a brief overview of the relevant observational experiments as well as the fuzzball paradigm in string theory and its explicitly constructable solutions called microstate geometries.
