LIGO might be able to detect alien warp drives utilizing gravitational waves

If aliens had been to make spacecraft as huge as Jupiter or ones that use warp drives, we’d be capable to detect them utilizing the ripples they produce in space-time

We might be able to spot monumental alien spacecraft by the gravitational waves they’d create. Gravitational waves are ripples in space-time shaped when a large object strikes round, so if there are any extraterrestrials driving gigantic spacecraft round our galaxy, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) within the US might doubtlessly detect them.

Gianni Martire at Utilized Physics, a analysis institute in New York, and his colleagues calculated how massive such a craft must be, and how briskly it will have …
