All of our theories say that...
Gravity or gravitational waves and light should travel at the speed of light.
So there's really not that much doubt about what happened.
They both travel at the speed of light.
The real takeaway, though, was the observation itself.
Now, imagine this.
The major takeaway is this, that the speed of gravity was equal to the speed of light for the better part of one part in one quadrillion.
Because think about this.
You've got an event 130 million light years away.
They travel essentially together for 130 million years.
That's four quadrillion seconds.
And they were separated by only two seconds.
So they are so close.
If for some reason gravitational waves don't travel exactly at the speed of light, they are so close to the speed of light that it's ridiculous, right?
They stayed in pace for all that time.
And the scientists and physicists, astrophysicists love this because theory says that they should travel at the speed of light.
General relativity, everything, all our good theories, all our great theories are screaming, yes, they must both travel at the speed of light.
Otherwise, if that's not true, then our science is off by an inch.
an unnerving degree.
So theoretically, yes, they should travel.
