KIP S. THORNE
In 1976, a theoretical physicist pushed Caltech toward building a machine to detect Einstein’s gravitational waves - 39 years later, black-hole-hunting LIGO heard their ripples, and by 2017, the Interstellar science adviser wept before the man who predicted them while receiving the Nobel PrizeKip Thorne, an illustrious physicist, chased the elusive gravitational waves predicted by Einstein for many years. His commitment yielded t...- What Would You Actually See If You Fell Toward a Black Hole?Falling into a black hole presents a bizarre cosmic experience.
