Description

Illustration of gravitational waves detected by LIGO, a breakthrough leading to the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics.

We explore the monumental breakthroughs in gravitational wave research, from the groundbreaking detection by LIGO to the Nobel Prize-winning work of Rainer Weiss, Barry Barish, and Kip Thorne. Discover how these waves, predicted by Einstein over a century ago, have transformed our understanding of the universe and opened a new frontier in astrophysics.
