The fundamental thing about gravitational waves is that those are a new form of data that the universe has always been sending towards us, and that we can read now. It's like being able to read the radio waves coming from the universe for the first time, not just the visible spectrum, or close to the visible spectrum.
If future advances in this field permit we may even use those to communicate. Who knows, perhaps someone is already talking in that language.
- ravar 7y agoCommunicating with gravity waves would be very inefficient given how weak Gravity is. I don't see any reason why you would want to use gravity for communications... but who knows.
- AstralStorm 7y agoQuantum entanglement is much more feasible instead.
- fsh 7y agoQuantum entanglement does not allow communication. This is known as the "no-communication theorem".
