What we’ve just studied is a source in the very final stage of collision, so what we’re seeing presages that merger and also gives us insight into the connection between black holes merging and growing and eventually producing gravitational waves. – Michael Koss	Found on CNN 1 year ago
At some level, the majority of physicists believe that Einsteins theory of gravity, called general relativity, is correct. However, that belief is mainly based on observations of phenomena taking place in regions of space with weak gravity, while Einsteins theory of gravity is meant to explain phenomena taking place near really strong gravitational fields, neutron stars and black holes are the objects that have the strongest known gravitational fields, so any test of gravity that involves these objects really test the heart of Einsteins gravity theory. – Sharon Morsink	Found on FOX News 3 years ago
Most planetary bodies consist of numerous pieces of rock that have coalesced under the influence of gravity. You could imagine them as sandcastles floating in space. Their structure can be disrupted when the force acting on the individual 'sand particle' is larger than their mutual gravity, similar to the ocean tides on Earth, which result from the gravitational pulls of the sun and the moon, in space a planetary body that comes close enough to a star is subjected to the strong gravitational pulls of that star. – Yun Zhang	Found on Reuters 4 years ago
A white dwarf is a very compact star, as such, close to the star, the gradient of the gravitational field can be very large. – Tinggui Wang	Found on FOX News 4 years ago
The secret to this whole business is that the waveform the pattern of this stretching and squeezing encodes information on the source, the thing that made this gravitational wave. – Maximiliano Isi	Found on FOX News 4 years ago
We can better estimate the population size of these systems in the universe and also better understand how these systems' get together' in the first place, on the extended wish list we would soon hope to have a supernova which goes off somewhere close so that we can capture the expected gravitational waves from this type of event and better model the supernova process. – Susan Scott	Found on CNN 4 years ago
They are a 1-2 punch and they are having a gravitational pull on the rest of the field. – Adam Green	Found on Reuters 4 years ago
I loved this show, i was addicted to it. I thought it was an amazing exercise in what we know and what we dont know about people, about family, about friends, how it flirted with the mystery of things, what was unsaid, unshown, unknown, was sort of the pull, the gravitational pull of the piece, and it was so exciting, so when I got the chance to join the crew, I thought yeah. – Meryl Streep	Found on FOX News 5 years ago
Stars form in packed groups called stellar nurseries and then later disperse as they move around the galaxy center, stars in these nurseries are so close to each other that they can exchange material amongst them by mutual gravitational interactions. Capture of 2015 BZ509 must have happened in the early stages of the solar system, about 4.5 billion years ago. – Helena Morais	Found on CNN 5 years ago
The DNC is always vulnerable to this gravitational force that makes it treat the presidency like it's the only office that matters. – Pete Buttigieg	Found on CNN 7 years ago
It has a sort of gravitational pull within the rowing (community), it attracts the best people. – Matthew Pinsent	Found on Reuters 7 years ago
But that fact allows us to use computer simulations to tease out the history of Saturn’s inner moons, doing so, we find that they were most likely born during the most recent 2 percent of the planet’s history. Related : Saturn's largest moon Titan is bursting with color Researchers had long thought Saturn’s rings were as old as the planet itself. But that thinking changed in 2012, when French astronomers found that tidal effects – the gravitational interaction of the inner moons with fluids deep in Saturn’s interior – are causing them to spiral to larger orbital radii comparatively quickly. The implication, given their present positions, is that these moons, and presumably the rings, are not so old. That still did n’t answer exactly when they were born. Cuk and his team turned to results from NASA’s Cassini mission, which has observed ice geysers on Saturn’s moon Enceladus. Assuming that the energy powering these geysers comes directly from tidal interactions and that Enceladus ’ level of geothermal activity is more or less constant, then the tides within Saturn are quite strong. According to the team’s analysis, these would move the satellite by the small amount indicated by the simulations in only about 100 million years. Related : Cassini probe takes' cosmic bulls-eye' of Saturn moons Enceladus, Tethys This would date the formation of the major moons of Saturn, with the exception of more distant Titan and Iapetus, to the relatively recent Cretaceous Period, the era of the dinosaurs. – Matija Cuk	Found on FOX News 8 years ago
We have detected gravitational waves. We did it. – David Reitze	Found on CNN 8 years ago
What's really exciting is what comes next, i think we're opening a window on the universe -- a window of gravitational wave astronomy. – David Reitze	Found on CNN 8 years ago
It's the first time the universe has spoken to us through gravitational waves, up to now we've been deaf to them. – David Reitze	Found on CNN 8 years ago
Gravitational waves are literally ripples in the curvature of space-time that are caused by collisions of heavy and compact objects like black holes and neutron stars. – Abhay Ashtekar	Found on Reuters 8 years ago
He thought gravitational waves are a beautiful construct, but they are so small nobody would ever be able to actually measure it. – Szabolcs Marka	Found on CNN 8 years ago
The discovery of gravitational waves is, I think, the most important breakthrough in modern science. – Szabolcs Marka	Found on CNN 8 years ago
Gravitational waves, when we discover them, will open a new window on the universe, we will be able to study not just Einstein's general relativity -- we'll be able to find objects we only imagined would exist. We should see a universe that has never been observed before. – Szabolcs Marka	Found on CNN 8 years ago
We think the whole [fat Jupiter] system has recently been disturbed by some violent gravitational interaction, though we're not sure exactly what happened, something recently happened that kicked it out. – Paul Kalas	Found on CNN 8 years ago
When you get this microphone in your hands, you will feel an indescribable, yet undeniable, gravitational-like pull to give a speech. – Chris Christie	Found on CNN 9 years ago
The tidal effect on an asteroid, which rapidly rotates under the gravitational field of a planet, can fragment these objects or release large rocks from its surface, which could then become dangerous projectiles at a local scale, such as the one that fell in Chelyabinsk, Russia. – Josep Maria Trigo-Rodríguez	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
