Caption: Astronomers have revealed the largest black hole merger to date. This illustration shows how the merger would appear to our eyes if we could somehow travel in a spaceship for a closer look.

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

Gravitational-wave detectors have captured their biggest spectacle yet: two gargantuan, rapidly spinning black holes likely ...
