I was wondering about that too. I guess some figure the collapse would not
be symmetrical, but 14 milliseconds seems really really short to me. I
wouldn't be surprised if the cause was something completely unknown; 2 sub
solar mass Black Holes coalescing maybe? That would be really exciting if
true. Black Holes that small would pretty much have to be primordial, I
can't think of anything except the Big Bang itself that would have
conditions extreme enough to produce them.
