Exactly, I wonder the same. Our earth “space time” is not the same as elsewhere, shouldn’t we have some sort of “universe space time index” and measure earth space-time against that? some type of ratio?
I’ve never heard of any such thing though(?)

I will never understand Christians objecting to the Big Bang Theory. It is merely Genesis 1:1 expressed in different language.
Except it makes no claim to know why the BB happened.
To: Mr. K
Universe was created by some sort of god or in the Big Bang Or
Universe was created by some sort of God or in by the Big Bang.
Those who believe don't see any problem for an infinite God to create a billion year old rock in a few nanoseconds.

5,000 comments just on CNN story now.
I live just down the road from Hanford LIGO; hope they get some positive results as well.

I figure the scope of meaning associated with "photon" varies from person to person, but technically, all electromagnetic radiation, from very low frequency, to radio, to microwave, to visible light, to x-rays, to high energy, all of that comprises photons.
In other words, "photons" technically covers more spectrum than the (human) visible spectrum of electromagnetic energy. Radio telescopes capture photons, just as optical telescopes do.
