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

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

This is the most massive black hole binary we’ve observed through gravitational waves, and it presents a real challenge to ...

In March 2023, the gravitational wave detector LIGO will resume operations with increased sensitivity as it searches for the ripples in space-time triggered by violent events such as black hole ...

On May 24, scientists at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) began an 18-month campaign to detect the most distant collisions between black holes and neutron stars ...

LIGO’s 20-month observation run 04 will officially start on May 24, and it will later be joined by Virgo and a new Japanese observatory—the Kamioka Gravitational Wave Detector, or KAGRA.

May 24 marked the start of O4, the latest gravitational-wave hunting effort of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration. But only LIGO is fully operational right now.
