I also wonder how long it will take to develop refined gravity detectors and what this would uncover? If it takes centuries, wake me up when its over. I know we have detected neutrinos for decades, and I don't think any fundamental changes in cosmology has occured? Its always the sizzle of the steak that attracts attention I reckon.
