Some corrections: * When I wrote "we stayed ahead of the [waves] for so long" I didn't mean that gravitational waves from the Big Bang & its immediate aftermath haven't been hitting us in the past. On the contrary: gravitational waves and background radiation from this event have always kept reaching us as our observable universe expanded. I was only referring to these particular waves that are hitting us now. * I insinuated we will always see the CMB radiation but that might be too strong a statement. When (if ever!) our observable universe has fully expanded to encompass the entire universe, we will no longer see radiation originating from the Big Bang. * I think we should stay skeptical about the existence of gravitational waves as they remained undetected for so long and also this time there's the possibility that someone might have jumped the gun.
