The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) has spotted the signs of yet another enormous collision in space, and this one seems to be between a black hole and a neutron star – the first time we’ve observed the two massive objects together. Gravitational waves are ripples in space-time that occur when massive objects move about. As they pass through Earth, these ripples stretch and squeeze the fabric of space-time in a way …
