"Europe's LISA Mission: Unveiling the Faintest Space-Time Ripples"

The European Space Agency and NASA have approved the LISA project, a space-based gravitational wave detector that will consist of three spacecraft forming a triangle of laser light to detect distortions in space caused by cosmic collisions. LISA's million-fold increase in scale compared to ground-based detectors like LIGO will enable it to detect lower-frequency gravitational waves, providing advanced warning of collisions and probing events from the cosmic dawn. The construction of the spacecraft will begin in 2025, and it is set to be launched in 2035.
