Gravitational waves detected

There has been as you know, a third detection of gravitational waves. Each of these is unambiguous. There is less confidence in a fourth possibility.
 
Astronomy Picture of the Day (
​APOD)​ for June 2, 2017 provides a chart of black holes of known mass. It is stunning. The numbers are staggering.
 
Thanks for the tradition and practice of scientific rationality.
