An 'impossible' black hole merger may finally be solved thanks to Einstein's relativity — but it raises an even bigger mystery

On Nov. 23, 2023, both LIGO detectors — in Washington and Louisiana — caught gravitational waves from GW231123, a signal from two black holes colliding about 2 billion light-years away. The masses don't fit standard formation models, so researchers propose an exotic variation of a known space-time effect to explain the merger. If that explanation holds, it creates a fresh puzzle about how such black holes form in the first place.
