Scientists detect gravitational waves from two neutron stars colliding(1/9)

The collision of two black holes―an event detected for the first time ever by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory, or LIGO―is seen in this still from a computer simulation. Scientists announced Monday that they have for the first time detected the ripples in space and time known as gravitational waves as well as light from a spectacular collision of two neutron stars.
