Good, this is a necessary thing to get back up and running again. Thanks for the update alerts, will subscribe and see what's stirring in the galactic 'hood.
Question though - do gravitational waves diminish significantly as a function of distance or intervening mass?
- empyrrhicist 3y agoAt distance it's an inverse square law I believe
- dataflow 3y agoI think their amplitude falls as 1/r, their power falls as 1/r^2. Just a layman but I imagine the amplitude is the relevant part here?
