The new underground Einstein telescope could allow scientists to directly see a black hole.
Gravitational waves have never been directly detected before and are thought to echo across the universe like ripples from a stone thrown in to a pond. The project will cost up to £1 billion to build and will rival the Large Hadron Collider in its sheer scope and cost. Scientists hope the device will enable them to directly detect black holes and to see in to the centre of neutron stars.The ambitious new device is designed to detect gravitational waves – an elusive phenomena created by some of the most violent events in the universe such as black holes, neutron stars and the Big Bang.
