This black hole merger animation was created using data collected by the LIGO and Virgo gravitational wave detectors, an ...

Astronomers announced on April 5 that they may have detected a collision between a neutron star and a lightweight mystery ...

A machine learning method has the potential to revolutionize multi-messenger astronomy. Detecting binary neutron star mergers ...

Historically, every new type of astronomical observation, from radio waves to gamma rays ... cosmic microwave background. If this first generation of gravitational researchers at last hears ...

After 25 years of observations, an international team of astronomers have seen the first evidence of ultra-low-frequency gravitational waves. The waves are expected to come from pairs of supermassive ...

By 1919, astronomical observations confirmed this remarkable ... Einstein himself had misgivings about his predication of gravitational waves. When first encountering the subtle equations of ...

Einstein's theory of general relativity suggests that the "memory" of ancient events, such as black hole mergers, may be etched into the fabric of space-time by gravitational waves. New research shows ...

Since the first detection in 2015 by the LIGO and Virgo collaboration, over 200 gravitational wave events have been observed. These disturbances in spacetime were predicted by Albert Einstein ...

"We've released the first 3,000 orbits of data collected ... individual images of nighttime airglow and atmospheric gravity wave observations collected by the instrument's four cameras, as well ...
