Scientists make huge discovery about black holes

On Friday, 12 February 2016 NASA made a huge discovery about black holes.

Even though they cant be seen black holes are being studied thoroughly by scientists. A recent discovery suggests that over a billion years ago two particular black holes smashed together. The shock waves this collision made have only just reach the Earth. For the first time this week scientists were able to detect the signal the collision caused. Professor Stephen Hawkins, one the world’s best experts on black holes, said, “The discovery is a special moment in the history of science. Gravitational waves provide a completely new way of looking at the universe.”Experts hope this discovery will help us to know more about parts of our universe that have yet to be discovered.
