You like science? You like astronomy? You like physics? You like having your mind BLOWN? Do yourself a favor and make a stop here on Science Saturdays and be prepared for a treat that you never knew existed. Bleeding-edge research into unlocking both incredibly HUGE and mind boggling tiny mysteries of the universe is being performed at this backwoods observatory. Black holes! Gravity Waves! Lasers! This is on par with visiting NASA, and they have lots of fun stuff for both kids and adults, science geeks and regular but inquisitive folks alike.

世界で初めてアインシュタインの唱えた重力波を観測。もう一ヶ所はhanford。こちらは森の中、もう一方は草木のない荒地、でも、建造物は瓜二つで道路が管路をまたいでいるところも一緒。

Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) Science Saturday is the third Saturday in Livingston Louisiana. A free little science center and even get a tour and go into the control room all for free. The scientists are willing to answer anything and make it very interesting explaining how in 2015 two black holes merged into one.

I visited it via G Earth, in awe of the structure (that looks really far out cool via satellite view :), does that count? CONGRATULATIONS!!! and thank you all for your hard (important) work!

Hell Yeah!!! Way to Go LIGO! LIGO-a-GoGo!!! Honestly, we took the kids to a science day there and it was a GREAT experience. And now, theyve done it! Congratulations!

Congratulations to the staff of this facility on discovering gravity waves and making one of the most important scientific discoveries of this young century.

3rd Saturday of every month they do an open exhibit room and hands on activities. Like the childrens museum, only better and for all ages.

Awesome exhibits for kids, so much to learn, scientists excel at discussing very technical information in a way anyone can understand!

Love science and I believe the recent discovery will change at least the world of science that I love being a part of :)

This place was awesome. I went with my daughters 8th grade class. The instructors were very interesting and motivating.
