These cataclysmic events created ripples in space-time called gravitational waves that travelled more than 900 million light years to reach detectors on Earth. Many astronomers contributed to the findings, published in the\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/iopscience.iop.org\/journal\/2041-8205\u0022\u003E Astrophysical Journal Letters,\u003C\/a\u003E including \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/physics.gatech.edu\/user\/bhavesh-khamesra\u0022\u003EBhavesh Khamesra\u003C\/a\u003E, a graduate student in the\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/physics.gatech.edu\/\u0022\u003E School of Physics\u003C\/a\u003E.
