Scientists have captured the clearest signal yet of a black hole collision, confirming Stephen Hawking's theory.

Scientists first detected ripples in space known as gravitational waves from the merger of two black holes in September 2015.

Hawking's second law of black hole mechanics, also known as Hawking's area theorem, states that the area of the event horizon ...
