Gravity Waves


This is James, a college professor and a member of our astronomical society. He was the speaker at tonight's meeting, and his topic was "What Ever Happened to Gravity Waves." I can't even begin to tell you all about this subject, but James did a great job of explaining the theoretical basis of their origins, (if they exist) and the efforts to build detectors to find them. Some of the explanations made my head hurt, but it was a great presentation. I love this shot! He moved around a LOT, so I had to shoot a great deal to get this one.
