Neutron star collision
Astronomers at Ligo Observatory in Louisiana have located the neutron star collision that prompted the discovery of gravitational waves. Those waves earned the lab the Nobel Prize in Physics. A member of that history making team, Duncan Brown, joins CBSN from Syracuse to discuss the importance of these discoveries.
