First Observation of Gravitational Waves

September 14th, 2015 9 years ago

The LIGO and Virgo collaborations made the groundbreaking discovery of gravitational waves, a phenomenon predicted by Albert Einstein. Detected on September 14, 2015, these ripples in spacetime resulted from the merger of two black holes approximately 1.3 billion light-years away. The observation marked a monumental milestone in astrophysics, as it confirmed Einstein's theories while opening new pathways in the study of the universe's most violent events.
