LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observatories detected two extraordinary black hole collisions in late 2024—GW241011 and GW241110. The first involved a rapidly spinning black hole, while the second revealed one rotating opposite its orbit. These findings fit predictions for second-generation black holes, born from earlier mergers within crowded star clusters. The events mark a maj…LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observatories detected two extraordinary black hole collisions in late 2024—GW241011 and GW241110.
