Astronomy Cast Ep. 743: What Else Can We Learn From Gravitational Waves?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fwPjPZXAuc

Streamed live on Feb 3, 2025.

Just a few years ago LIGO detected the first direct evidence of gravitational waves coming from colliding black holes. And there you have it. Boom! Black holes collide! But that wasn’t all we learned from gravitational waves, nor will we learn. Sure, the masses of merging black holes are nice to know, but what else can we learn from gravitational black holes?

Hosted by: Fraser Cain and Dr. Pamela L. Gay
