Confused about gravitational waves and gravitons? You’re not alone! Especially since we’ve never directly detected either one. But, as Neil deGrasse Tyson says to Leighann Lord in answering a fan’s Cosmic Query, “We’ve got top people working on it.” Find out about LIGO (the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Observatory) and how we’d know if a gravitional wave passed across us. You’ll also hear about how a scientist from Bronx High School of Science won the Nobel Prize in Physics for using binary pulsars to measure gravity waves. • This Behind the Scenes video was shot during the recording of our episode, “Cosmic Queries: Gravity.” You can listen to the full podcast here: http://www.startalkradio.net/show/cos... • Support us on Patreon: / startalkradio • Subscribe to StarTalk: https://www.youtube.com/user/startalk... • Follow StarTalk: • Twitter: / startalkradio • Facebook: / startalk • Instagram: / startalkradio • About StarTalk: • Science meets pop culture on StarTalk!
