  Empieza el 11/02/2016CONFIRMADO88% DE CONFIANZAhace 10,6 añosWikipedia^[2] dates both the observation and the announcement: "The first direct observation of gravitational waves was made on 14 September 2015 and was announced by the LIGO^[3] and Virgo collaborations on 11 February 2016." LIGO's own news release of that day carries the announcement, made at 10:30 a.m. Eastern at the National Press Club, where this pin is placed.

  At a press conference at the National Press Club in Washington, the LIGO and Virgo collaborations announce GW150914, a signal from the merger of two black holes recorded by both LIGO detectors on 14 September 2015 - the first direct observation of gravitational waves.

  LIGO, Virgo and KAGRA Begin the IR1 Observing Run

  NSF LIGO - Hanford, 127124, North Route 10, Richland, Benton County, Washington, 99354, United StatesLIGO

  

  Empieza el 15/11/2026ESTIMADO68% DE CONFIANZAdentro de 53 díasThe collaborations' own observing plan, last updated 3 September 2026, gives only a window - a six-month run "beginning early- to mid-November of 2026" - and says the next update is due 15 October 2026 or sooner. With no day named, the pin takes the close of the stated window rather than its start, so it is not early; it moves when the collaborations name the day.^[1]

  The gravitational-wave detectors start a six-month intermediate observing run before the fifth observing run. Both LIGO detectors take part, Virgo joins despite possible maintenance interruptions, and KAGRA joins as it becomes available.

  The 1919 Eclipse Results Confirm General Relativity

  Empieza el 06/11/1919CONFIRMADO85% DE CONFIANZAhace 106,9 añosWikipedia's^[1][2][3] Eddington experiment article dates the session: "The presentation of the results at the joint 6 November 1919 session of Royal Society and Royal Astronomical Society led to intensive press coverage first in Great Britain and a few days later in the US press". The eclipse itself was on 29 May 1919; this pin is the announcement, which is what made Einstein famous.

  Arthur Eddington presents the results of the May 1919 eclipse expeditions to Principe and Sobral at a joint session of the Royal Society and the Royal Astronomical Society at Burlington House. The measured deflection of starlight matches Einstein's prediction, and the meeting accepts it.
