The first time this was detected was on September 14, 2015, by the LIGO-VIRGO collaboration. Since then three more detections have been made, the latest one on September 28, 2017.]]> 2017-11-20 17:30:01 UTC https://padlet.com/eleonora10/132cc1gzxfw/wish/208813912 eleonora10 https://padlet.com/eleonora10/132cc1gzxfw/wish/208814484 2017-11-20 17:31:10 UTC https://padlet.com/eleonora10/132cc1gzxfw/wish/208814484 eleonora10 https://padlet.com/eleonora10/132cc1gzxfw/wish/208814625 The discovery and the repeated detection (four times now) has made the possibility of gravitational wave astronomy very real.

There are also Italian scientists, because in Pisa there is the Virgo antenna, realized by Adalberto Giazotto.
