Gravitational Waves Reveal Most Massive Black Hole Merger Ever Observed

The GW231123 event marks the most massive black hole merger ever detected through gravitational waves, involving black holes of 100 and 140 solar masses. Observed by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA network, it challenges current black hole formation models with extreme mass and spin, suggesting a complex origin. Scientists believe its full implications may take years to decode.
