Everything said in that NANOgrav link is mind-blowing.

Slow, undulating waves in spacetime. Detected via observations of triangulated pulsars.

Now THIS is what I love in humanity.
It's playful. It's clever. In fact, it's brilliant. It's the sense of curiosity and discovery. It's about finding the unexpected and even the unimaginable.

EDIT: It's like the man said...

"We’re using a gravitational-wave detector the size of the galaxy that’s made out of exotic stars, which just blows my mind,” exclaims National Radio Astronomy Observatory’s Dr. Scott Ransom.

I'm picking up Nobel Prize vibes here.
