"“LISA is an endeavour that has never been tried before. Using laser beams over distances of several kilometres, ground-based instrumentation can detect gravitational waves coming from events involving star-sized objects – such as supernova explosions or merging of hyper-dense stars and stellar-mass black holes. To expand the frontier of gravitational studies we must go to space,” explains LISA lead project scientist Nora Lützgendorf."
Using three satellites in equilateral formation. The project sounds incredibly cool.-
As history has shown, there a significant difference between project deadlines mentioned at the start of the project and the actual date of when it's launched. 2035 become 2037 becomes 2040 becomes 2045 very easily
