The most massive gravitational-wave source has been detected – a binary black hole merger, which produced a blast equal to the energy of eight Suns, sending shockwaves through the universe. 

Gravitational waves are produced when an extreme cosmic event occurs somewhere in the universe and, like dropping a rock in a pond, these events ripple across the cosmos, bending and stretching the fabric of space-time itself. 

The collision involved two inspiralling black holes, the first about 85 times as massive as the Sun, and the second measuring about 66 times the Sun’s mass. 

It created a behemoth black hole – with a mass of about 142 Suns.

 It appears the signal came from a source about 7 billion light years from Earth, making it one of the most distant gravitational-wave sources detected so far. 

The signal, named GW190521, it was observed by the Virgo detector in Italy and the twin detectors at LIGO (Laser Interferometry Gravitational-Wave Observatory) in the United States.
