Graviton Waves Detected From the Collision of Dual Neutron Stars Created Echoes That Stymied the Theory of Relativity

01.29.2020 08:00 AM

Out in the cosmos, the collision of two neutron stars caused enough ruckus to be heard in known space. These gravitons scattered and sent a graviton wave that was detected on earth way back in 2017. There is speculation that this event is a black hole and it just made the theory of relativity a bit out of whack.
