Gravity Wave Detectors: Prepared for Detection & Active Time

[exponent137]

How it is with Gravity wave detectors, as LISA etc.
Are they are prepared for gravity waves? How long they are active?

LISA is still in the planning stages. Virgo and LIGO have been operational for a few years now, and expect to make their first detections any day now. I'm not sure about the status of GEO, but it at least was operational.
