Quote:One reason the Louisiana and Washington sites are located so far apart is that if both sites observe the same gravitational wave signal, at the same time, physicists can have some confidence they simply haven’t measured some other, more localized environmental vibration.
So there's absolutely no chance that this is what actually happened?
If you see the same signal with 7 millisecond delay in two detectors thousands of miles apart, there is nothing that can travel this fast except radio waves snd gravitational waves. Actually, I'm not sure anything can travel this fast I think because any signal can only go 2000 km in that time.
