Thumbs up Three Americans win Nobel Prize in Physics

Quote:
Rainer Weiss, Barry C. Barish and Kip S. Thorne have won the 2017 Nobel Prize in physics. The three are members of the LIGO-Virgo detector collaboration that discovered gravitational waves. The prize was awarded “for decisive contributions to the LIGO detector and the observation of gravitational waves,” the committee said in a news release.

“This year’s prize is about a discovery that shook the world,” said the Nobel committee representative Göran K. Hansson during a conference in Stockholm on Tuesday.

I am so glad Kip Thorne was a winner. He bet that little fucker Stephen Hawking that a black hole would be discovered prior to the 21st century. Hawking basically called Thorne an idiot.

Surprise Hawking. One was discovered in 1999.

Hawking doesn't have a Nobel laureate under his belt.

Thorne does.

Congratulations, Dr. Thorne.
