And yet somehow this article fails to mention that with the budget cuts to LIGO one of its two antennas is likely to shut down soon. Without two antennas this research is impossible.
VladVladikoff•4mo ago
It was not a particularly well written article. Like junk food of science reporting. This sentence really made me wonder about their editor. Was it really necessary to write it in such a way?

>As gravity is related to mass, the size of an event horizon, also known as the Schwarzschild radius — after Karl Schwarzschild, the first physicist to solve the equations of general relativity and inadvertently predict the existence of black holes — also depends on the mass of a black hole.

It also leads with this: >and potentially revealing a path toward a theory of quantum gravity.

But unless I missed it they never really came back around to explain their points
