For trailblazing work in gravitational wave data analysis techniques, computing, and cyberinfrastructure, and for leadership in gravitational wave science that enables multi-messenger astronomy with gravitational wave observations. We look forward to the Isaacson Session at the APS meeting! 2/2

AHHHHH! I won the award for @dgrav.org Best Student Presentation at the Gulf Coast Gravity Meeting this weekend in UMiss, Oxford MS 🏆 I didn't get a photo at the meeting, but here's a photo of me giving an earlier draft of this presentation at @apsphysics.bsky.social Global Physics Meeting 🔭🧪

Learning about history of Loop Quantum Gravity. Awesome ideas. Terminology of the morning is Quantum Riemannian Geometry. Plus, curvature at Planck scale is 1e76 larger than at horizon of Solar Mass Black hole. Amazing. @apsphysics.bsky.social @dgrav.org

General relativity (which replaces both Newtonian gravity and special relativity) has gravitational waves, which travel at the speed of light. Or maybe we should say that light waves travel at the speed of gravity, because it's the metric (which *is* gravity) that controls the speed of light! 2/2

It's at the speed of light! This was one of Einstein's realizations about why Newtonian gravity had to be replaced with something else (namely, general relativity): because in Newtonian gravity, there was an "absolute time," which violated special relativity. 1/
