The new and improved LIGO detector has already found something interesting. It's too recent to have been mentioned in the article but yesterday my phone gave me an alert that exactly 17.8 seconds after 10:38PM Eastern time LIGO detected something which they preliminarily gave a 72% probability of being caused by a collision between 2 Black Holes. That's not high enough certainty to claim a discovery but it had only been turned on a few hours previously so the machine certainly seems to be operating very well indeed.
Gravitational-wave detector LIGO is back and can spot more colliding black holes than ever <https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-01732-4?utm_source=Nature+Briefing&utm_campaign=d128e37f03-briefing-dy-20230525&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_c9dfd39373-d128e37f03-44221073> John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis> h5c -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
