LIGO scientists waited until now to announce the second detection because they had to make sure that it was real, and that it was caused by a black hole collision, team members said.
Scientists wanted to make certain that the second gravitational wave was caused by colliding black holes.

What else could have caused a gravitational wave the scientists aren't telling us about?
