The Waltz Among the Stars To honor Johann Strauss II’s 200th birthday, the European Space Agency broadcast his iconic waltz The Blue Danube into space, transforming a musical symbol of cosmic elegance into a literal interstellar message. Performed live by the Vienna Symphony Orchestra and transmitted via satellite, the waltz now travels through the universe—chasing Voyager 1—offering a poetic gesture of unity, imagination, and the hope of one day touching the infinite.

Following a Gravitational Wave from Beginning to End For the first time, scientists have simulated the complete journey of a gravitational wave as it interacts with a black hole, from "past infinity" to "future infinity." Using a custom-built program called COFFEE, they revealed how black holes absorb and reflect gravitational waves, creating complex ripple patterns and a signature "ringing." The research deepens our understanding of space-time and supports future work with detectors like LIGO.

New Clues Reveal Missing Black Holes Researchers have uncovered compelling evidence for intermediate-mass black holes—long-theorized but rarely observed—by reanalyzing gravitational wave data from LIGO and Virgo. These findings, bolstered by AI and upcoming missions like LISA, offer new insights into black hole evolution and the early universe. With plans to one day listen for cosmic signals from the moon, scientists are entering a transformative era in black hole discovery.
