Spacetime wave orbits black hole

[hummingwolf]

This morning's fun science news: "Astronomers from MIT and the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics have seen evidence of hot iron gas riding a ripple in spacetime around a black hole. This spacetime wave, if confirmed, would represent a new phenomenon that goes beyond Einstein's general relativity."

The report goes on to talk about amusement park rides and Beach Boys CDs. No, really.
