"But I stress that the universe is mainly made of nothing, that something is the exception. Nothing is the rule. That darkness is a commonplace; it is light that is the rarity." - Carl Sagan

There are pretty consistent new astronomy discoveries these days, it seems, but I think this one is significant. Being able to study this one closely could lead to discoveries of many more black holes that are relatively close to us.

[pg 39] "From now onwards space by itself and time by itself will recede completely to become mere shadows and only a type of union of the two will still stand independently on its own."
