Moon Bell: A New Way to Catch Gravitational Waves

Scientists from the LILA mission aim to transform the Moon into a gravitational wave detector. Devoid of noise, the Moon will ring like a bell when hit by waves, and laser sensors will measure these vibrations. This opens the low-frequency band and lets us study black hole mergers right back to the

Lunar detector to hear ancient black holes

A supersensitive laser device will be built on the Moon—it will catch the trembling of space from the merger of intermediate-mass black holes. This will help peer into the early Universe and understand how galaxies grew. The detector will warn of a collision months in advance, so telescopes across E
