I've been wondering if this would ever happen in our lifetime. The
detector is good but still it requires such a huge and rare event to be
detectable as two black holes crashing into each other. How often does
that happen? Are black hole ever formed in pairs, if not a crash would be
very unlikely. Is this a case of unbelievable luck or is this an every few
years event? I guess we will find out
