More on gravitational waves

It seems that a new branch of astronomy is well underway with the discovery of more waves by LIGO, the new detector. Very interesting. See this BBC article. According to this:
"According to UK collaboration member Prof Bernard Schutz of Cardiff University, making a second detection proves the first was not just an isolated event, and that Advanced LIGO really does have the capability to open up a new cosmic realm to investigation."
OK - have to post this to catch my end-of-month deadline...
