Black hole discovery confirms Einstein and Hawking were right


A fresh black hole merger detection has offered the clearest evidence yet for Einstein’s relativity and Hawking’s predictions. Scientists tracked the complete cosmic collision, confirming that black holes are defined by mass and spin. They also gained stronger proof that a black hole’s event horizon only grows, echoing thermodynamic laws. The results hint at deeper connections between gravity, entropy, and quantum theory.
