Scientists are claiming a stunning discovery in their quest to fully understand gravity.
They have observed (gravitational waves) the warping of space-time generated by the
collision of two black holes more than a billion light-years from Earth. —BBC, 2/11/16
Gravitational Waves
when I entered your orbit
and you swept into mine
I gave a gravitational wave
which you returned and I received
without the help of lasers
now a billion years have passed
black holes have come and gone
and those waves are rippling
through the universe still
clear and sharp as razors
.
