The vibrations from the gravitational wave that was spotted back in February were smaller than the width of an atom. But now that we know for sure that they are there, they can't escape our science....................

The Nobel announcement explains why we should be so excited about this discovery:

So far all sorts of electromagnetic radiation and particles, such as cosmic rays or neutrinos, have been used to explore the universe. However, gravitational waves are direct testimony to disruptions in spacetime itself. This is something completely new and different, opening up unseen worlds. A wealth of discoveries awaits those who succeed in capturing the waves and interpreting their message.
