A Massive Gravitational Wave Observatory Is Returning to Action
After a prolonged absence from the gravitational-wave-detection scene, the massive LIGO project is back up and running.First Full-Color Images From Webb Space TelescopeThe Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) works in conjunction with the Virgo detector in Italy and the KAGRA detector in Japan to suss out gravitational waves—perturbations in the fabric of spacetime caused by interactions of massive objects.The collaboration made monumental news in 2016 when it first made a gravitational wave…
