Gravity waves are ripples or disturbances in the fabric of space-time that propagate at the speed of light. They are caused by the acceleration of massive objects, such as colliding black holes or supernovas.
Gravity waves are detected using highly sensitive instruments called interferometers. These devices measure tiny changes in the distances between mirrors caused by the passing of a gravity wave.
Gravity waves provide us with a new way to observe and study the universe. They can give us information about the formation, evolution, and interactions of massive objects in the universe, such as galaxies and black holes.
No, gravity waves cannot be created or controlled by humans. They are a natural phenomenon that occurs in the universe as a result of massive objects interacting with each other.
The first detection of gravity waves in 2015 confirmed a major prediction of Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity and opened up a new field of astronomy. It also provided evidence for the existence of black holes and has allowed scientists to study the universe in a completely new way.
