These new events do not show an accompanying longer signal that might be expected from a host star, suggesting that these new events may be free-floating planets. Predicted by Albert Einstein 85 years ago as a consequence of his General Theory of Relativity, microlens…

Detection of gravitational waves from star-eating black holes

Before the first dinosaurs The signal analysis has shown that the black hole and neutron star that created GW200105 are, respectively, about 8.9 times and 1.9 times as massive as our Sun, and their merger happened around 900 million years ago, hundreds of millions of years before the first dinosaurs appeared on Earth. For the GW200115 event, the Virgo and LIGO scientists estimate the two compact objects had masses around 5.7 (BH) and…
