Scientists said on Thursday they have for the first time detected gravitational waves, ripples in space and time hypothesized by Einstein a century ago.
The blue lines are gravitational waves, ripples in time and space, which is how astronomers detected the merger, and orange and red areas indicate parts of the neutron star being stripped away.

A space-based observatory, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA), is also being developed by the European Space Agency. Linearly polarized gravitational wave. Gravitational waves do not strongly interact with matter in the way that electromagnetic radiation does.
The European Space Agency has selected a gravitational-wave mission for its L3 mission, due to launch 2034, the current concept is the evolved Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (eLISA). [20] Also in development is the Japanese Deci-hertz Interferometer Gravitational wave Observatory (DECIGO).
The cosmic collision could be the first example of a black hole colliding with a neutron star — possibly offering new insights into the expansion of the universe
The term "black hole" was used in print by Life and Science News magazines in 1963, [61] and by science journalist Ann Ewing in her article " 'Black Holes' in Space", dated 18 January 1964, which was a report on a meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science held in Cleveland, Ohio.
