The news is out! The @NANOGrav pulsar timing array collaboration has detected a background of cosmic gravitational waves rippling through our Universe! Let’s talk about it!(Full press conference tomorrow, https://nanograv.org/news/2023Announcement)1/n

This is the announcement that was being hyped up in that aliens or time-travel thread a few days ago.

The announcement is that the scientists who were studying gravitational waves found gravitational waves. This was perhaps a bit overhyped.

To be fair, it's a very big experiment and it's nice that they got it all to work. They also found more gravitational waves than expected.

    you don't think mr god particle saying quantum mechanics research will lead to teleporters before 2100 contributed to people making this about aliens, etc
