Yeah, I read about Wheeler’s passing-—he certainly left his mark.

I watched the 20 minute video from the NSF about LIGO. Cool stuff. Are they hiring chefs?

“Gravity itself is seen as a force measured in Newtons, so the effect would be in microNewtons.”

I have a torque wrench that measures in microNewtons/meter.

will that work?

“Years ago an astrophysicist told me of an attempt being made to “measure gravity” directly. It was a failure. “

I guess the machine didn’t work, because it was too heavy.

I think Nature is sending us mixed signals here.

Cheers!

Incidentally, the great physicist John Wheeler died Sunday.

Wasn't he an atheist? So he went to meet his...S-matrix.

Full Disclosure: I wonder what state he's in now.

Cheers!

Schrondinger is in the box with him and they have it locked from the inside.

LOL!!!

I suppose you'd have to do "spectral" analysis :-)
