Gravitational waves from big bang detected

A curved signature in the cosmic microwave background light provides proof of inflation and space-time ripples.

Primordial gravitational wave discovery heralds 'whole new era' in physics

Gravitational waves could help unite general relativity and quantum mechanics to reveal a 'theory of everything.'

Telescope captures view of gravitational waves

Out of Antarctica, a 'grand slam' that leads back to the big bang

Physicists using data from an Antarctica telescope say they've observed evidence of primordial gravity waves—in other words, echoes of the big bang.
