"Boosting LISA's Power: A 100-Fold Increase in Gravitational-Wave Observations"
TL;DR Summary
The European Space Agency (ESA) is considering a new concept that would build on the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) known as LISAmax, which could potentially improve gravitational wave (GW) sensitivity by two orders of magnitude. LISAmax would detect GWs at even lower frequencies than LISA by increasing the laser arms of the detector. This makes LISAmax sensitive to GWs in the micro-Hertz band and opens a new window for GW astronomy. The scientific community is investigating this concept, which could have drastic implications for the future of GW astronomy.
