The Multimessenger gravitational wave LIGO/VIRGO event GW170817 detection of the merger of two neutron stars on 17th August 2017 accompanied by a gamma-ray burst and an optical kilonova event is a triumph of the ideas about the evolution of the baryon component in the Universe. Despite the current uniqueness of this observation, the variety of the experimental data obtained makes it possible right now to draw important theoretical conclusions about the origin of the double neutron star, its merger, and the subsequent flare-up of electromagnetic radiation. We demonstrate that the discovery of the merger at a distance of 40 Mpc is entirely consistent with the very first calculations of the Scenario Machine (Lipunov et al. 1987). In modern terms, the predicted rate is ~ 10 000 Gpc-3. http://dbserver.icra.it:8080/mg15/FMPro?-db=3_talk_mg15_.fp5&ps::web_code=0913672671&-format=session_mg15.htm&-lay=talk_reg&main_1::Attivo=Yes&talk_accept=Yes&-SortField=order2&-SortOrder=ascend&-Max=50&-Find
