What LIGO Detection Means For Other Gravitational Wave Searches

By Gabriel Popkin, Inside Science When leaders of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory, or LIGO, announced in February the first-ever direct detection of a gravitational wave, astrophysicists Scott Ransom from the National Radio Astronomy Observatory and Andrea Lommen at Franklin and Marshall University in Lancaster, Pennsylva

Mysteriously quiet space baffles researchers (Synopsis)

We live in a Universe full of galaxies, supermassive black holes, and violence. The violence is particularly relevant here, because every so often, these galaxies merge, and if they each contain a supermassive black hole, the gravitational wave "ripples" that get sent through space will literally shake and affect everything that's in them.

What are neutron stars? The cosmic gold mines, explained

From their crushing gravity to the universe’s strongest magnetic fields, extremes of physics are the norm for neutron star.
