The first observing runs of the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors, with significant sensitivity improvements compared to the first generation detectors, yielded in less than two years incredible discoveries and major astrophysics results via gravitational wave (GW) detections. The first observed GW signals corresponded to the final moments of the coalescence of two stellar-mass black holes and their final plunge. GW150914 and GW151226 were observed with high confidence (> 5σ), while LVT151012 was identified with a lower significance (1.7σ)[1–5] during the first observing run (O1). During the second observing run (O2), GW170104 and GW170814 (which was detected simultaneously by the three LIGO and Virgo detectors) have confirmed the estimated rate of stellar-mass black hole mergers [6, 7]. Lastly,
