LIGO, or the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory, is a large-scale physics experiment and observatory to detect cosmic gravitational waves and to study their properties. It uses laser interferometry to measure tiny changes in distance caused by passing gravitational waves, which can provide valuable insights into phenomena such as black hole mergers and neutron star collisions.
congrats on reading the definition of LIGO. now let's actually learn it.
