Gravitational Waves: A New Era in Observational AstronomyOn September 14, 2015, humanity crossed a cosmic threshold. LIGO detected gravitational waves - ripples in spacetime ...
Gravitational waves are tiny ripples in the fabric of time and space that are created by some of the universe's most powerful events such as colliding black holes.
Gravitational waves travel at the speed of light, but the astronomers realized a single rise and fall of one of the waves could take years or decades to pass by due to the space-time ripple effect.
Gravitational waves with wavelengths of a few thousand kilometers — like those detected by LIGO in the United States and its partners Virgo in Italy and KAGRA in Japan — come mostly from ...
Astronomers confirm ‘lite intermediate’ black holes, too large for ordinary stars, revealing clues about early stellar ...
But gravitational waves were not detected definitively until 2015, at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) — two facilities located in Washington state and Louisiana ...
With LISA, ESA plans to catch gravitational waves from space, using a triangle of spacecraft millions of kilometers ...
