	Tuesday May 2nd 2006 (sorry there hasn't been a news update in a few days. I've been busy with stuff.) Black Hole Pair Sets Proximity Record LINK TO THE ARTICLE Since I love astronomy I find this one especially interesting. 2 black holes found about 24 light years appart. That's closer then any other 2 black holes seen close together. This is especially interesting to those studying gravity waves. When these 2 black holes collide (which they will some day) it will be a big source of gravity waves that we might be able to detect.
