Barbara Koopmans, Commissioner Planning & Development Department Town of Milton, 150 Mary Street Milton, ON L9T 625 PD-DR19-012 BB OPINION A NEUTRON STAR COLLIDES WITH A BLACK HOLE CELESTIAL EVENT OCCURRED 900 MILLION YEARS AGO, WRITES MARIO CARR MARIO Some- CARR where in a Column galaxy far, about 900 million years ago, a black hole gobbled up a neutron star. The catastrophic event occurred millions of trillions of miles away, sending out grav- itational waves across the universe. It oc- curred so distant that its waves are just now reaching us - and scientists think it was de- tected by the European Gravitational Obser- vatory in Cascina, Italy, in mid-August. Both objects are unimaginable. A neutron star is created after a superno- va explosion and is incredibly small and dense. It's about the size of a small city, only six to 12 miles in diameter. A teaspoonful weighs about 10 million tonnes. A black hole is a singularity in space where nothing, not even light, can escape its grasp. Here are September stargazing events, which are listed in the Hamilton Amateur Astronomers calendar. Sept. 13: Hamilton Amateur Astrono- mers meeting, 7:30 to 9:30 p.m., Hamilton Spectator, 44 Frid St. Free admission, door prizes and everybody is welcome. An option- al food bank donation of non-perishable goods will be collected and appreciated. The Harvest Moon also rises tonight at sunset. Sept. 14: The smallest full moon of 2019. ~ Sept. 20: The moon approaches the Hya- - des in the predawn sky. Sept. 21: Last quarter moon. Sept. 23: Fall officially begins with the Autumn Equinox at 3:50 a.m. Sept. 27: For the next two weeks, from a dark location in the eastern predawn sky, you could see the Zodiacal Light. It's caused by sunlight reflecting off dust particles in ~ the solar system. For more information, see the Hamilton Amateur Astronomers website (amateuras- tronomy.org) or call 905-627-4323. The club offers a basic astronomy course for mem- bers.
