With the news being out that GEO600 will cease operations at the end of the year, if anyone who is/was involved with it wants a high res copy of my travel poster to print don't hesitate to get in touch!
(I also have a version with the infamous tractor!)

I went looking for that dramatic winter sunrise light I saw a year ago near the Cobbler, and I found it. A December morning in the Alps of Arrochar - hard to choose only four photos!

Why are there two LIGO observatories?

LIGO has two detectors ~3000 km apart for three main reasons:
Noise discrimination – separating local vibrations from real signals by comparing distant data.
Signal timing – gravitational waves travel at light speed; timing differences over 10 ms rule out false signals.
Source localization – two sites help narrow wave origins; adding more (like Virgo) improves precision, as in the 2017 neutron star event.

Yosemite Serenity 🌲 My watercolor painting is inspired by a summer visit. What a wonderful place! Fine art prints are available in a variety of sizes. Here's a large framed print for decor inspiration.
