Cosmic Heavyweights Collide – LIGO Detects Largest, Fastest-Spinning Black Holes Yet
A gravitational wave has revealed the biggest black-hole merger ever recorded—so massive and extreme, it defies current astrophysical models. The clash formed a 225-solar-mass monster, possibly made from black holes that had already merged before. Einstein’s rules may need revisiting. Record-Breaking Black Hole Collision The LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) Collaboration has observed the most massive black hole [...]
