Download The Ripple in Space-Time. The faint, flickering distortions of space-time we call gravitational waves that we finally had equipment sensitive enough to detect the ripples. This second spacetime ripple, preliminary models suggest, crossed some 1.2 billion light years of intergalactic space before it arrived at Earth. The Short Answer: A gravitational wave is an invisible (yet incredibly fast) ripple in space. We've known about gravitational waves for a long time. More than 100 years ago, a great scientist named Albert Einstein came up with many ideas about gravity and space. The race is on. Since the construction of technology able to detect the ripples in space and time triggered collisions from massive objects in When an object accelerates, it creates ripples in space-time, just like a boat causes ripples in a pond (and also similarly an accelerating electrical charge The 2017 Nobel prize in Physics has been awarded to Rainer Weiss, Barry C. Barish and Kip S. Thorne for decisive contributions to the LIGO Astronomers detect gravitational waves that may point to a colossal collision. Business Insider - Nearly a billion years ago, a collision sent ripples in space-time that passed through Earth this month. Read more at years ago, two monstrous black holes crashed together forming an even larger black hole and creating ripples in the fabric of spacetime About 900 million years ago, a catastrophic cosmic event sparked a ripple in space-time that passed through Earth last week (Aug. 14). Gravitational Waves: Ripples in the fabric of space-time We can think of space-time as a fabric; The presence of large amounts of mass or energy distorts The detectors, named LIGO and Virgo, observed ripples in space and time, which is believed to be a black hole eating a neutron star. now most of you who are astro-enthusiasts have already heard the news originally announced in February 2016 of the gravitational wave Gravitational waves are real, and scientists have detected them. In the video above, PBS Richard O'Shaughnessy is a professor in the school of physics and astronomy at the Rochester Institute of Technology and a member of the These elusive ripples in the fabric of space-time were first predicted Albert Einstein a century ago. Yet until now, no instrument possessed As he predicted (and scientists have since proven) gravitational waves are ripples in space-time created when massive objects either merge or These ripples are called gravitational waves. Big masses such as stars and galaxies deform space-time around them. If other objects move through such areas, After decades of search for these ripples in space-time, which Albert Einstein predicted exactly 100 years ago, scientists working with the
