The Trump administration wants to close one of the nation’s two cutting-edge observatories — one of them in the Tri-Cities — that made scientific history and launched a new way to study the universe.
Scientists at the world's largest gravitational wave observatory have just squeezed light beyond a key quantum limit. The new technique, called frequency-dependent squeezing, will increase the number ...
The LIGO Hanford Observatory near Richland is expected to detect 60% more cataclysmic cosmic events — like colliding neutron stars and black holes — thanks to a quantum limit breakthrough. Since the ...
The latest operating run of the LIGO Hanford observatory near Richland hit the jackpot. The network of its twin gravitational wave observatory in Louisiana and a detector in Italy picked up ripples in ...
Louisiana LIGO scientists fear Trump administration's proposed cuts: 'So much science would be lost'
Scientists believe if the Trump administration's proposed budget is approved, a Louisiana space observatory could be on the chopping block and see its scientific mission crippled. The Trump ...
A pair of distant cosmic black hole mergers, measured just one month apart in late 2024, is improving how scientists understand the nature and evolution of the most violent deep-space collisions in ...
The collision of four more sets of black holes have been detected via their gravitational waves at the LIGO observatory near Richland. It brings the discoveries of the Laser Interferometer ...
