Gravity Waves Long Sleeve T-Shirts

For over a billion years, a particular set of gravity waves which originated when two black holes coalesced, have been travelling through space. Nearly a billion years later, Einstein, through precise Mathematics, creative intuition and his sheer genius predicts that such waves would exist. Nearly 100 years later, those waves were detected in what might as well be the most precise measurement made by humankind. That’s how smart Einstein was and that’s how awesome Science is.

Ripples in the curvature of space-time predicted by Albert Einstein in 1916, and proven by observation 100 years later

In physics, gravitational waves are ripples in the curvature of spacetime that propagate as a wave, travelling outward from the source. Predicted to exist by Albert Einstein in 1915 on the basis of his theory of general relativity, gravitational waves theoretically transport energy as gravitational radiation. Although gravitational radiation has not been directly detected, there is indirect evidence for its existence. For example, the 1993 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for measurements of the Hulse-Taylor binary system that suggests gravitational waves are more than mathematical anomalies. As objects with mass move around in spacetime, the curvature changes to reflect the changed locations of those objects. In certain circumstances,...

Monitoring observations.

This waveform (GW150914) is that of the first observation of gravitational waves on 2015-09-14. It was also the first observation of a binary black hole merger and demonstrates the existence of binary stellar-mass black hole systems.

Illustration of binary neutron stars about to collide. The aftermath of such a collision, known as a kilonova, was witnessed for the first time in galaxy NGC 4993 on the 17th August 2017. Kilonova are thought to be the origin for all elements heavier than iron in the universe. The merger also produced gravitational waves and gamma rays, both of which were detected by LIGO-Virgo and Fermi/INTEGRAL detectors respectively. Galaxy NGC 4993 is about 130 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Hydra.
