SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the measurement of black hole gravity through the detection of gravitational waves, as proposed in a referenced article. The method involves using a laser to observe the bending of light around a black hole. However, participants express skepticism regarding the feasibility of such measurements due to the immense distances involved and the accuracy of the terminology used, specifically correcting "lazer" to "laser." Additionally, the lack of a proper article reference hinders meaningful discussion.
