Binary Black holes:
Black holes are essentially dead stars. There can be three kinds of BH; stellar black holes, intermediate-mass black holes, and supermassive black holes. You go up the mass axis via eating other stars or merging with other black holes.
Laser Interferometry Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) first saw a black hole collision/merger in September 2015. LIGO also won the Nobel Prize in Physics in the year 2017.
