Of course, a collection of distributed, very accurate clocks does
already exist:

And there was a recent paper using this with a similar approach as you
are suggesting, not for gravitational waves, but in the hunt for dark
matter:

Hi,
If I understood it well, we should occasionally encounter gravitational
waves going through, well, the whole galaxy. As time and space are
intertwined, those ripples may be measured somehow I guess.
Isn't this that "we as time nuts community" can help the scientific
world with? E.g. create some kind of grassroots effort where our very
accurate clocks can detect this? I can imagine all kinds of reasons
that existing infra for this may not always be able to detect this on
its own.
What do you think?
