re: #358 Belafon

The big sciency announcement today is that they detected the collision of two neutron stars. A cool effect is that the gravitational and electromagnetic waves were detected simultaneously, meaning that gravitational waves travel at the speed of light.

I thought we already knew that. I’ve seen mention that if the sun were to disappear, our orbit would continue on its current path for a little over 8 minutes, until the sun visibly disappeared.
