Something bent space-time and made tomorrow July 29th.
Good they announced that they’d be making an announcement. An unannounced announcement could surprise someone!
all aboard the hypetrain?
I’m always aboard.
But seriously, even small developments are so fascinating. This takes me back to 2015 and the excitement of the gravity wave news.
The hell? That wasn’t 2015, that was just like a year or two ago.
…Right?
This was on NANOGrav’s site: Scientists use Exotic Stars to Tune into Hum from Cosmic Symphony and NASA’s
Everything said in that NANOgrav link is mind-blowing.
Slow, undulating waves in spacetime. Detected via observations of triangulated pulsars.
Now THIS is what I love in humanity.
It’s playful. It’s clever. In fact, it’s brilliant. It’s the sense of curiosity and discovery. It’s about finding the unexpected and even the unimaginable.
EDIT: It’s like the man said…
"We’re using a gravitational-wave detector the size of the galaxy that’s made out of exotic stars, which just blows my mind,” exclaims National Radio Astronomy Observatory’s Dr. Scott Ransom.
I’m picking up Nobel Prize vibes here.
