The th

31、ird detection, which the astronomers called GW170104, was made on January 4, 2017. The astronomers believed their latest finding “provides clues about the directions in which the black holes are spinning”“Black holes are beautifully simple. You just need two numbers to describe them completely: mass

32、, how much they bend spacetime, and a spin, how much spacetime moves about them，” said Dr Christopher Berry of the University of Birmingham, one of the researchers in the project. “But it takes lots of hard work to measure these from our data. We now have wonderful mass measurements, and are startin
