Gravitational waves detected - NOT amateur radio

See http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-35553549 .

It amazes me how some astronomical experiments are done. Some work require mS timing and  
staggering distances. Often, the co-operation of researchers scattered across the planet is needed. The hunt for gravitational waves is no exception.

Coming full circle to WSPR, our very own Joe Taylor, K1JT, inventor of WSPR won the Nobel Prize in 1973 for his study of pulsar binary systems. This confirmed the existence of Gravitational Waves predicted by Einstein.
