Extra! Extra! Read All About It! Gravitational Waves Detected!

More proof for Einstein's Theory of General Relativity

This is big enough news that I just had to post. I've been very lazy about posting over the past few years but this is just too incredible to not highlight.

It will be exciting to see the developments that come out of this. Could we be watching a video recording of black hole collisions in a decade or so, one captured using a gravitational detector camera? That could be cool but I'm sure there are even more important scientific developments coming, presumably leading to an even deeper understanding of our universe.

Check out Bad Astronomer for more on this breaking news.
