Description
Come celebrate the 10 year anniversary of the first discovery of a Gravitational Wave Signal: GW150914.
To commemorate this massive step in our field we will provide drinks, snacks and some thematic games.
Not unimportantly: some key-figures will share their experience on the GW field and the world around it during and after the time of the discovery.
Please register if you wish to attend this celebration so that the organisation can make sure there is enough catering.
