@LIGO Gravitational Waves Aren’t Just Signals — They’re Probes of the Vacuum A Frequency Wave Theory (FWT) perspective Gravitational waves are often described as ripples in spacetime, but in practice they are something more powerful: precision probes of whatever spacetime is ma

@LIGO I've got a post saying usa has 3 ligo stations in usa would it make sense to have three ligo stations on the Moon I said 3 on the Mars but then 3 ligo stations on a Mars moon after earths ligo Soundwave stations aren't needed but 3 points of veiws from usa Would make

Our recent low-significance candidate #S251112cm has caught some interest. A false alarm or a big discovery—we will keep investigating.

@LIGOLA @LIGOWA @KAGRA_PR @ego_virgo Our fourth observing run (O4) has seen our detectors perform better than ever before. Together with @ego_virgo and @KAGRA_PR we have identified more gravitational-wave candidates than in all previous observing runs combined #O4IsHere https://
A cumulative detection plot, including significant candidate events from O4a, O4b, and O4c. There were a totla of 3 probable canddiates following O1, 11 following O2, 90 following O3, and 218 following O4a. There were 165 significant candidates in O4b and 68 in O4c. The total is almost 400. From O1 through O4a, the counts refer to the detected gravitational-wave events that are included in the GWTC papers. In contrast, the counts for O4b and O4c refer to candidate events for which a significant low-latency alert was issued and that were not subsequently retracted. The O4c data collection period is divided into two segments: January 28 April 1, 2025 and June 11 November 18, 2025. These segments are distinguished in the figure by different fill colors: the first is represented in dark blue, and the second in light blue. The intervening gap is omitted from the figure.

Our Rapid Response Teams celebrate the end of our fourth observing run. Well done everyone! https://t.co/iI4pnnTdXL O4 was a success thanks to lots of hard work from across the world. #O4IsHere https://t.co/7CVMwJr4Xa
In Japan, KAGRA staff gathered in the control room to celebrate the end of O4. This was the first run that KAGRA took science data simultaneously with Virgo and LIGO.
Staff at LIGO Livingston Observatory in Louisiana gathered in the control room to say farewell to O4
In Italy, Virgo staff gathered in the control room to celebrate the end of O4.
Staff at LIGO Hanford Observatory in Washington State gathered in the control room at 8am to celebrate the end of O4. Everyone enjoyed morning coffee and cake.

Our fourth LIGO @ego_virgo @KAGRA_PR observing run has now drawn to a close. We will be busy analysing data for a while to come—watch out for more discovery announcements. We will be back next year https://t.co/CyWp70H1if 10.8K views · 45 likes · 19 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

During O4, new candidates are immediately reported to astronomers worldwide via NASA's GCN Circulars Prior to O4, we had discovered 90 probable #GravitationalWave candidates. O4 is a big advancement! O4 is planned to continue until 7 October 2025 (https://t.co/CyWp70H1if) https
Cumulative number of detections. For O1, O2 and O3, we have published 90 probable candidates. During O4, we have so far shared 200 significant candidates
