Understanding the Universe through Gravitational Waves
1:37:24 - 1:44:46 (07:21)
Researchers aim to develop an instrument 10 times better than what currently exists to observe gravitational waves from the earlier universe. This could help provide insight into the asymmetry of matter and antimatter and the origins of the Big Bang.

Summary
This episode discusses how observing gravitational fields could help understand the asymmetry of matter and antimatter in the universe. While laboratory experiments at CERN create equal amounts of matter and antimatter, the universe seems to be solely composed of matter.
