‘Galaxy-sized’ observatory sees potential hints of gravitational waves – Phys.org

Scientists have used a “galaxy-sized” space observatory to find possible hints of a unique signal from gravitational waves, or the powerful ripples that course through the universe and warp the fabric of space and time itself.
The new findings, which appeared recently in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, hail from a U.S. and Canadian project called the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav).
For over 13 years, NANOGrav researchers have pored over the light streaming…
