Why Neutron Stars, Not Black Holes, Show The Future Of Gravitational Wave Astronomy
"This is going to have a bigger impact on science and human understanding, in many ways, than the first discovery of gravitational waves. We're going to be puzzling over the observations we've made with gravitational waves and with light for years to come." -Duncan Brown Detecting black holes and the gravitational wave signals from them was an incredible feat, but doing the same thing for…
