A new method to analyze gravitational-wave data could transform how we study some of the universe's most extreme events—black ...

The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) is no stranger to making history and breaking records. In 2015 ...

A collision observed between two black holes, each more massive than a hundred suns, is the largest merger of its kind ever ...

The Trump administration has called for shutting down either a Tri-Cities, WA, or Louisiana observatory that work in tandem.

Scientists have detected gravitational waves from a black hole collision, revealing one with an unexpected mass that challenges existing theories about star death.

Gravitational-wave detectors have captured their biggest spectacle yet: two gargantuan, rapidly spinning black holes likely ...

A gravitational wave has revealed the biggest black-hole merger ever recorded—so massive and extreme, it defies current astrophysical models. The clash formed a 225-solar-mass monster, possibly made ...

The proposed next generation of gravitational wave detectors will require hundreds of kilometers of ultrahigh vacuum beam ...

The LIGO Hanford Observatory near the Tri-Cities and its twin in Louisiana detected ripples of time and space passing through ...

The LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) collaboration has announced a groundbreaking discovery in the field of gravitational wave ...

An international team of physicists discovered the largest-ever merger of 2 black holes through a phenomenon known as gravitational waves.

The merger wasn’t just the biggest ever, but also an event so rare that it challenges existing models for black hole genesis.
