Description: Predicted
by Einstein almost a century before, Gravitational waves (GW) have
eluded direct detection till now. The first detection of gravitational
waves by detectors like Advanced LIGO and Virgo seems imminent. When
detections become routine, inaugurating GW astronomy requires extension
of the current network by LIGO-India to provide good sky localization
for the GW sources. LIGO-India will play a key role in locating and
deciphering GW sources with implications for astrophysics, cosmology and
eventually fundamental physics.
