StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

For this purpose.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

For exactly this purpose.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

Yeah.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

Look at that.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

USA.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

Absolutely.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

I mean, it ends up being, you know, not only that, but individual parts in this constellation, you have to weigh each object that you put in, each little cable very, very, very distinctly because that causes a gravity gradient.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

And that's going to, you know, mimic a gravitational wave.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

is what you're saying.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

Yeah.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

Yeah.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

Unless you screw, there's another thing that that's called tilt to link coupling where like, just like you said, you have it when you have a cube and there's a little bit of radiation pressure, which is going to put a little force, it's going to twerk it.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

And so you'll get this cube rotating back and forth.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

And that difference is going to be, it's going to mimic a difference in the path length because you're going to hit it, not perpendicularly.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

And so this, you know, bobbing back and forth is, is something that you have to correct for.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

Yeah.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

Y'all make a good team.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

Okay.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

So yes, we do have to have things that are that relatively precise.

StarTalk Radio
Gravity’s Cosmic Symphony with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann

So we aren't detecting things a fraction of a proton length, not detecting relative changes on that scale.
