Gravitational Waves & the Music of Spheres

 Apparently, scientists and astronomers have once again discovered some “thing” non-material.

Worth remembering: "The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence." – Nikola Tesla

This is another indication that what we perceive as space is not empty. And these waves are ubiquitous.

“After a 15-year-long study, the scientists have finally ‘heard’ what they were looking for: the gravitational waves that should be filling the universe.”

Gravitational waves have been known for fifteen years, having been discovered about 100 years after Einstein predicted them. They are “physical ripples in spacetime.”

Everything, even humans, apparently create these waves, although they would be quite faint unless we could follow very large objects, which the Webb telescope did in its scan of the galaxy and universe.

“So far, we’ve only been able to detect gravitational waves when they were at their shortest wavelength, right before and during the merging of the objects creating those waves. As two massive objects orbit closer and closer in the lead up to a merge, they start orbiting faster and faster. And as they orbit faster, the gravitational waves they emit also increase in frequency (vibrate faster) and shorten in wavelength.”...<<<Read More>>>...
