- The gravitational wave astrophysics group at NASA/GSFC works in the emerging field of gravitational wave astronomy.
- Predicted by general relativity, gravitational waves are disturbances in spacetime produced by the motion of massive compact objects such as black holes, neutron stars, and white dwarfs.
- Two major areas of research in the group are Numerical Relativity and development of the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission.
- LISA is a space-based gravitational wave detector under development through a partnership of NASA and the European Space Agency that will study gravitational waves in the source-rich milliHertz frequency band.
