By the time the ripples caused by the rock hitting the surface reach the edge of the pond, they’ve almost disappeared. What if, from the ripples at the edge of the pond, you were able to figure out how big the rock was? Where the rock hit the pond’s surface? How the rock evolved? If the rock was instead a system of two black holes orbiting each other before eventually merging and the water was spacetime, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) would detect this event as a binary black hole merger. Since 2015, LIGO has detected nearly 400 merger events, bringing us into the era of gravitational wave astronomy. In this presentation, I will explain how we detect these events, what they tell us about the universe, and how one special detection has kick-started the era of multi-messenger astronomy.🕑: 07:40 PM - 07:50 PMQ&amp;A With Taylor Starkman🕑: 07:50 PM - 08:00 PMRaffle DrawInfo: Only guests who showed up prior to the start of the lecture are eligible to participate in the raffle, as the ticket stubs are given at the start!🕑: 08:00 PM - 09:00 PMReception &amp; Observation/Arts &amp; CraftsInfo: Please note that the observation part of this event is entirely weather dependent. If weather permits, we will be viewing objects such as the Moon, Saturn, and Jupiter! To accommodate Hebb Rooftop capacity, the observation will be split into viewing groups and take turns. While you wait, partake in our Astro-themed craft section!🕑: 09:00 PM - 09:30 PMClosing Address
