I have viewed quite a lot of this already, I for one think it is more propaganda from science. I do not believe them, they have made the experiment sound so complex as to not let normal people even understand it.  I smell conspiracy all over. How odd that science is being pressured everywhere by people then out pops this in an attempt to keep Einstein ''alive'',


Complete lies regardless what they tell us.

It's a very simple experiment to detect a very simple phenomenon. The only problem was of engineering, not science, because the effect is extremely subtle. What bit don't you understand? We've been using gravity since the universe began, and laser interferometers for about 50 years. If the whole thing was a conspiracy, the result would have been announced a long time ago!

A new era of astronomy has birthed.

No it hasn't, I watched your link, since when do we observe black holes directly?

Since when does a computer simulation prove anything?

How do you know any ripples are not inverted light etc etc?


How does anyone in the right mind perceive that machines on earth that uses a t shaped laser detect two black holes in space?


What garbage

And science was not under pressure until the last few years , physics is under pressure to produce. The experiment proves nothing.

''That view was reinforced by Professor Stephen Hawking, who is an expert on black holes. Speaking exclusively to BBC News he said he believed that the detection marked a moment in scientific history.''  nobody can be an expert in something we do not observe.

''Einstein himself actually thought a detection might be beyond the reach of technology.''  Einstein is correct on that one.

I'm sure Einstein would be very pleased to hear that you approve, that is if he were still with us. Truth is, he's probably turning over in his grave as we speak.

Gravity waves do not exist, space does not move, things move through space, a temporal distortion in a laser field does not show a gravitational wave or two blaCK HOLES MERGING, It seem quite timely if you ask  me.

well obviously not, because the higher powers above science care about control, they have to keep the parlour tricks going.  Everyone with half a brain knows space behind the light and mass is made of nothing, nothing can not ripple or wave.

there is no aether , space is made of no fabric, nothing can not wave or ripple , only things can ripple through nothing.



A moving hand should affect the laser because of mass gravity.

yet blackholes millions miles away affect it,

OK, you science says mass is attracted to mass and has gravity and gravity waves, a mysterious force between objects, if you move your hand above the laser then the gravity from your hand should affect the laser, if two black holes merging miles way can affect the laser, with a gravitational wave, then so must your hand from a closer distance.

Detected two black holes is hilarious.

Nope...................But what is truly hilarious is your behavior Mr. Box. You actually presume to be in a position to correct giants of science like Einstein, now that's what's incredibly hilarious.

My apologies for the over reaction, I watched a video that said this proved all of Einstein stuff to be true, and obviously I am working hard to contest GR and SR and my instant reaction after seen the original post was to react .


I still say it is not true regardless of the results.

My friend, and truly I would like for us to be such, how can you possibly grow in knowledge if you ignore "the results"? It's what makes science fun and interesting and the great adventure of confronting the unexpected.

All science "must consider the results", whether we like them or not.

Please,.... honestly consider your motives my friend. Do you really want to know the truth or do you want to make it up as you go? In the end, if you settle for merely something that appeals to your senses but is found to be in error, you will gain nothing. Fact is, you'll lose and have nothing to blame but your preconceived prejudices. Such a waste Mr. Box. You're too smart to allow this to happen, I certainly hope so anyway.

New results are to be questioned yes?

I instantly discoursed the information and found there is nothing that suggests that they detected a gravitation wave or two black holes merging.

I have no idea why they are trying to use a laser to detect gravity, light is massless and can only be ''changed'' by power differences.

So what is the significance of using a laser?


Why does the gravitation of the tubes or a passing hand not affect the beam but yet from miles away a weak signal altered the beam?

What I have gathered the results are the result of a computer read out?


I have  a laser, the force of wind does not affect a laser, so why would a gravitational wave be any different?

To confirm the experiment I observe three things, they would need to show and prove light has mass, then they would need to prove what space is  made of and finally they need to show us the observation of a black hole(s) they said caused the anomaly.


Consider this Ethos, they spent years wondering about the double slit experiment and why this happened, I came along and instantly spotted observer effect, the act of putting an obstacle in the way with an angled slit(s) is what caused the effect. The angled slits causing a narrowing passage and causing the light propagation to bottle neck.


Light does not even travel directly in straight lines either, it behaves like a gas and I can prove and show this to be true by simple experiments. (second thoughts maybe not, but shadows are saying something to me about light, especially when the angles do not reflect light but the shadows have light).

Take a cardboard box with no lid on it. Angle the open part towards the sky away from the Sun, there is no angle to reflect light into the box, but there is still light in the box.

The published paper is here: "Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Black Hole Merger"
https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.061102
It is moderately readable, and you can skip over the couple of formulas that they insert. They describe the conclusions in words.

I strongly suggest that you read it, or you will have no relevant questions or comments to make.

They are using the laser to measure distances very accurately - just like all surveyers use today, but a much better laser, and far more powerful.

The gravitational wave distorts lengths, by a factor of 0.00000000000000000001; you need to measure lengths extremely accurately to detect this!

Quote
Why does the gravitation of the tubes or a passing hand not affect the beam but yet from miles away a weak signal altered the beam?
The tubes have a constant effect on the light. This detector ignores constant effects; they focus on oscillations of 20Hz to 2kHz such as would be produced by closely-orbiting black holes or neutron stars.

Your hand might affect one of the beams (but at 1-2Hz, not 20+ Hz). There are two detectors at opposite ends of the USA; your hand might affect one of them, but definitely not both of them. This event was detected at both sites, about 6ms apart, which gives a rough indication of where the event occurred in the sky.

They also surround the gravitational wave detectors with sensitive detectors for earthquakes, cosmic rays, and anything else that they think could affect the results. They saw nothing external that could have produced these results.

The box is illuminated by diffuse light from the sky.

Take the box into space, where shadows are much harsher, and things are more black and white; the inside of TheBox will be seen to be dark.

Hmmm, what about power fluctuations in the energy input or a surge of the lasers internal components?
