The LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) collaboration has announced a groundbreaking discovery in the field of gravitational wave ...

The largest black hole collision ever recorded has scientists' jaws on the floor — and scratching their heads.

Physicists call such ripples gravitational waves. Gravitational waves were predicted by Albert Einstein in 1915 as part of his theory of relativity, but he thought they were too weak to ever ...

Astronomers have detected the largest black hole merger ever, and it has challenged their understanding of such formations.

Learn more about LIGO, the observatory that detected two massive black holes merging, the largest in recorded history.

The LIGO Hanford Observatory near the Tri-Cities and its twin in Louisiana detected ripples of time and space passing through ...

A U.S. gravitational wave detector spotted a collision between fast-spinning “forbidden” black holes that challenge physics ...

A theory of merger black holes or simply a mass conundrum even scientists are baffled by, could you imagine a mass so heavy ...

The powerful merger, designated GW231123, produced an extremely large black hole about 225 times the mass of our Sun.

In 2015, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) directly detected gravitational waves, or ripples in space-time, for the first time ever—almost exactly one century after ...

It took less than a second for the space observatory hidden in Louisiana woods to detect a black hole that is that is ...

New gravitational wave findings from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration report the discovery of the largest black hole merger ...
