»LFW! - TECHTUESDAY • LIGO ( Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory ).

After visiting LIGO last night for the NOBR SWUG ( New Orleans Baton Rouge SolidWorks User Group ) Meeting, I knew it was only fitting to blog about it for my weekly TECHTUESDAY edition.
LIGO, which stands for the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory, is a large-scale physics experiment aiming to directly detect gravitational waves. Cofounded in 1992 by Kip Thorne and Ronald Drever of Caltech and Rainer Weiss of MIT, LIGO is a joint project between scientists at MIT, Caltech, and many other colleges and universities. It is sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF). At the cost of $365 million (in 2002 USD), it is the largest and most ambitious project ever funded by the NSF.
