Collapsing stars could be the new source of detectable gravitational wave

After the death of a massive, spinning star, the ripples generated in spacetime could shake the universe. These ripples, called gravitational waves, are 15 to 20 times the mass of the sun. A new study suggests that instruments on Earth could feel these gravitational waves. What’s more, scientists have been waiting for a long time [...] Read Full Article At: Collapsing stars could be the new source of detectable gravitational wave
