A discovery made with CSIRO's Parkes radio telescope in eastern Australia may have brought forward the day when astronomers will directly detect cosmic gravity waves for the first time.

i did not know which forum to post this article in as it
covers so many areas, i think it is exciting that that
observations are finding more and more fuel for the
theorists.
 
Astronomy news on Phys.org
I saw the same announcement (on a different website) and posted it to Relativity! Still in Astronomy&Cosmology though.

hi NEREID
i keep a watch for discoveries like the above ,or anything
that can give science a firm foundation, it seems to me that
this is the era for observation to confirm theory, who knowes
what new observational discoveries will reveal, dark matter
dark energy the granularity of spacetime, i just hope i am
around to witness them.
