Ripples from the Big Bang could transform our understanding of the universe — and we may be close to detecting them
Deep in the first moments of the Big Bang, the entire cosmos shook and rumbled. Those quakes still reverberate to the present day. It will take the most sensitive instruments ever imagined to reveal ...

What are Gravitational Waves?
Think of spacetime as a rubber sheet, which is stretched when there are large objects such as stars and black holes.
A new paper explores the idea of asteroid-sized objects that may be causing gravitational ripples in our cosmic neighborhood. Reading time 2 minutes Black holes are some of the most vexing objects in ...
When the Big Bang gave birth to our universe 13.8 billion years ago, one of the first things to emerge from that nascent cauldron of hot, homogeneous matter was black holes. But they would’ve been a ...
