stars collided into each other to create a type of explosion called a «kilonova» that is a thousand times more energetic than a normal nova.
If the signal LIGO had detected had been, say, neutron
stars colliding and not black holes, we would have had no complaints, but there's probably a very good chance you could see neutron star mergers with other, conventional observational tools relying on light.

collide, etc....
He theorized (and this is put very basically mind you all, so please correct me if I get something drastically wrong) that since the
stars and planets and other bodies in space do not
collide into one another as chaos would prescribe, and since they are set so perfectly apart that their gravity doesn't pull them into one another, there must be something that set it up perfectly to not allow that.
