​LIGO announced they've detected ​another Black Hole merger. On June 7 2017
Black Holes of 7 and 12 solar masses collided producing a 18 solar mass
Black Hole and a solar mass of energy in the form of Gravitational Waves.
It happened a billion years ago and these are the smallest Black Holes that
LIGO has yet found.

By the way, Trump said he will not honor this years Nobel Prize winners by
inviting then to the White House that has long been traditional, and that
includes the people that invented LIGO.
