Mapping the simplicity that holds ALL together from a 1.4 billion traveler.....amazing darkness

please don't stop making videos. i don't have the money to further my education and this is one of 3 channels i use to learn. thank you so much.

Libgen.io you can find many books there, try it out

Great educational video, but I think people would also like to know just how sensitive the LIGO detectors really are. According to Wikipedia, they can detect a change in the 4 kilometer mirror spacing of less than a ten-thousandth the charge diameter of a proton, which is equivalent to measuring changes in the distance from Earth to Proxima Centauri (40,208,000,000,000 kilometers, or 4.24 light-years) with an accuracy smaller than the width of a human hair. (No wonder Einstein thought gravitational waves would forever be undetectable!)

Great video. Thank you to the people who worked on this

Thank you for the share and all yer hard work.

This was huge

like the laymen explanation

[@musicisbrilliant]

Einstein would be so proud.

A wave is a mathematical shape that objects have.

[@donfox1036]

@Jon Bain, your definition is misleading. Waves have a precise time dependent structure who causes adjacent portions of the medium to move in delayed synchronization as time elapses. By your definition a planet or star could be a wave, but they are not.

Gravitational waves are naively faint like a saint ..but cannot undermine it's strength...as it had travelled 1.3 billion years ...still strong enough to identify them...
Understand ...it is the so called weakest for of the universe...then how strong the strongest one would be....can you imagine guys...

I blame Hubble

almost clickbait

[@timsmith6675]

A wave is 2 opposing forces and since if you only had 1 force without it's opposite, then nothing would happen.

Stop bouncing that!
