The masses of stellar remnants are measured in many different ways. This graphic shows the masses for black holes detected through electromagnetic observations (purple), the black holes measured by gravitational wave observations (blue), neutron stars measured with electromagnetic observations (yellow), and the masses of GW170817 measured by gravitational wave observations (orange). The remnant of GW170817 is unclassified, and labeled as a question mark. Credit: LIGO/Virgo/Northwestern/Frank Elavsky
