Neutron Stars, Black Holes, and Gravitational Waves by James J Kolata
One hundred years after gravitational waves were first predicted, their first real direct effects were observed in 2015. This is the story of that hunt, and the insight it is producing into an array of topics in modern science, from the creation of the chemical elements to insights into the properties of gravity itself.
