LIGO detects colliding black holes for third time
UChicago scientists: Results help unveil diversity of black holes in the universe
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory has made a third detection of gravitational waves, providing the latest confirmation that a new window in astronomy has opened. As was the case with the first two detections, the waves—ripples in spacetime—were generated when two black holes collided to form a larger black hole. (more…)
