As a physicist who’s listened to him talk about the experiment, it really really makes you take a step back and marvel at how incredible that detector was. And 40 years ago even. He could imagine it but to build it to such an accuracy is incredible and I’m so happy they won it. The teams at LIGO also deserve so so much credit. They work tirelessly!
