Its an amazing example of collaboration where it stars with gravitational waves, that helped locate it and quickly half the world of astronomy was looking at it on every wave length. Its an unbelievable example of cooperation and using different observatories to look at the same event.
It also shows how LIGO can be used to find events, and then others can point there to get more information.
