Trio pozemních gravitačních observatoří loni na jaře spustilo čtvrtou sérii pozorování v moři gravitačních vln. Hned zpočátku ulovily pozoruhodnou srážku ze vzdálenosti 650 milionů světelných let, která zahrnovala neutronovou hvězdu a objekt o hmotnosti 2,5 až 4,5 Sluncí. Asi černá díra, ale černé díry s takovou hmotností by neměly existovat. http://www.osel.cz/13426-gravitacni-vlny-priplavily-ozvenu-srazky-podivneho-objektu.html
