  • Ripples Through Time: Past Triumphs, Mapping the Future, November 25-27, 2026 at UWA Perth

    Ripples Through Time: Past Triumphs, Mapping the Future, November 25-27, 2026 at UWA Perth Celebrating 50 years of gravitational wave research, science education, and future innovation A century ago gravitational wave detection was thought to be impossible. Fifty years ago it was the quest of a small bunch of intrepid physicists. They faced challenge after challenge, but their optimism persisted. They uncovered new physics, invented novel instruments and new techniques. New disciplines like quantum optomechanics, space laser communication, clock technology and airborne exploration technologies emerged from their efforts. Year after year they overcame setbacks, never imagining that it would take 40 years of struggle to achieve their quest. Symposium Website
