@neiltyson could we be closer to a quantum theory of gravity ?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@neiltyson not "graviolis" as described by Professor Farnsworth?#futuramaThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@neiltyson@aacastilloxD why would gravity waves exhibit wave particle duality?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@neiltyson@aacastilloxD Neil, are they detecting "waves" or a 50ms "pulse"? Is there a transverse component seen, or just longitudinal?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@neiltyson i never understood why wave and particle are treated so differently. Waves are made of particle, yes?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@neiltyson if a spinning disk does not produce G-Waves how can they be the wave duality of gravitons if all matter has gravity?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@neiltyson@aacastilloxD I like the way you put it. I don't like the way some physicists build hypotheses upon hypotheses upon hypotheses...Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@jpaynesae1991@neiltyson Likely- with future advanced & much more sensitive detectors they become 'gravity telescopes', which is very cool.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@neiltyson given the issues with quantum theory would string theories be a more reasonable solution for possible graviton observation?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
