Predicted by Einstein, gravitational waves promise to unlock the secrets of the universe just as seismic measurements unlocked the secrets of the Earth's interior. Scientists are on the brink of detecting these waves. This research aids that effort by developing Australian technologies which allow specific gravitational wave sources to be targeted.

爱因斯坦预言，引力波有望解开宇宙的秘密，就像地震测量解开了地球内部的秘密一样。科学家即将探测到这些引力波。这项研究通过开发澳大利亚的技术来帮助这项工作，这些技术可以使特定的引力波源成为目标。
