If gravitational waves are discovered, it would prove my theory...
(that gravitational waves exist)...

How is it your theory?

I made another theory that required the existence of gravitational waves many years ago. Have forgotten what that theory is though...

The real question is... Do gravitational waves cause cancer?

Hmm.. the consensus seems to be they are ok since they don' cause cancer. But then they don't cure it either. What a waste of time!

It wouldn't be the first time someone's jumped the gun on gravitational waves

Interesting news, I got shivers down my spine watching the animation of it, it looks so spectacularly beautiful if true.

I have always wondered what exactly is gravity. Its a force generated by massive objects such as planets and stars (and everyday stuff to a negligible degree). But what is the underlying mechanism generating the force of gravity? Magnetism is very similar. Really makes me wonder.
