Gravitational Waves: A New Listener at the South Pole ⚡ экспресс
Original: "Opportunities for Gravitational Wave Physics at the South Pole"
An Antarctic detector made of ultracold atoms will hear the low hum of the universe — from star mergers to echoes of the Big Bang.

While LIGO catches the shriek of colliding black holes, the Antarctic atom-based detector will pick up their bass-heavy rumble — and pinpoint their location in the sky.
🎯 Frequencies around 0.1–10 hertz are exactly the range where the hum of giant black hole mergers lies, inaccessible to ground-based lasers and even the future LISA space observatory.
