Next time you’ve got a free weekend, why not head up to the Gravity Discovery Centre and pay them a visit? And we have plenty of physicists working on making future discoveries possible too. Sometimes, like last year, WA just happens to be the right place at the right time.
These waves give us the warning we need to find and point the right telescopes in the right part of the world at the right part of the sky. Gravity waves, for a whole bunch of reasons, tend to reach us before the light from these collisions. Thanks to a cutting-edge international physics experiment, we finally have that warning. The second thing you need is a little bit of warning about where to look. And as we already know, WA is a great place to watch the sky. These events could come from any direction, so having remote access to telescopes around the world is crucial. The first thing you need is telescopes spread all over the world. Of course, that won’t stop astronomers trying. The simple answer is that space is big, and it’s hard to watch all of it at once. So if these events are so powerful, how come we’d never seen one until last year?
