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

An international team of physicists discovered the largest-ever merger of 2 black holes through a phenomenon known as gravitational waves.

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

“It’s the most massive [merger] so far,” says Mark Hannam, a physicist at Cardiff University, UK, and part of the LVK ...
