In November 2023, LIGO recorded GW231123—a historic collision of two black holes (~103 and ~137 M☉) forming a new 225-solar-mass black hole, the largest yet seen by gravitational waves .

🌌 **In this video, we explore:**

1. 🔭 The event details – two massive black holes spiraling and merging in just ~0.1 seconds, sending ripples across the cosmos .

2. 🧩 The “mass gap” puzzle – one or both progenitors fall into a stellar mass gap (~60–130 M☉), challenging standard star-collapse theory .

3. 💥 Rapid spins & formation mystery – both black holes spun near physical limits (80–90%)—likely via past mergers or gas-driven growth in galactic cores .

4. 🌌 Why it matters – opens up a potential new “intermediate-mass black hole” category, reshapes models of black hole evolution, and underscores gravitational-wave astronomy’s power .
