Black holes are stranger than anything dreamed up by science-fiction writers, but they are firmly matters of science fact.” For decades, Stephen Hawking has been fascinated by black holes.
Weber's signal from the center of the Milky Way implied that 1,000 solar masses per year were being converted into gravitational wave energy. The young theorist Martin Rees calculated that such a loss of mass would cause the galaxy to ...
