Scientists may have just discovered Einstein’s gravitational waves
Rumors are circulating that scientists have finally discovered gravitational waves – one of the most important variables in Albert Einstein’s understanding of how the universe works. If confirmed, the observations could become the biggest leap in physics in a hundred years.
When Einstein published his general theory of relativity in 1915, he propelled physics years forward and changed our understanding of how the universe works. He envisioned spacetime (a system containing three spatial dimensions and one time dimension) and gravity in a fresh way, showing us that spacetime was dynamic – not static – and that gravity warps spacetime in the presence of a massive object.

Rumor Claims Gravitational Waves Have Been Detected At LIGO


Excitement is building as rumors have emerged of multiple detections of gravitational waves. If true, this would be one of the biggest physics breakthroughs so far this century, confirming a central feature of Einstein's Theory of General Relativity.

That's a big deal if confirmed.

Rumours fly as physicists hint at the first ever observations of gravitational waves
And that’s a huge deal - if it’s true.


Earlier today, well-known American theoretical physicist Laurence Kraus tweeted that the results of a recent experiment looking for gravitational waves have finally been peer-reviewed and we just might have the first direct evidence that these light-speed ripples in the Universe actually exist.

If it turns out that we really do have definitive evidence that gravitational waves exist - the results of the study have not yet been released to the public - we’re looking at Nobel Prize-worthy stuff

I remember watching a programming about LIGO a few years back. Every time a train goes past ( a few miles away ) it sets off an alarm to tell them to ignore the results coming in.

At least...as is this charade of 1960's era rockets.

GLP is slipping, normally when there is mention of Einstein someone comes up with "Einstein was a plagerist, teh chosen people of G-d stole all the ideas from the patent office"
