LIGO: THE WAY THE UNIVERSE IS, I THINK



Documentary / Mark Pedri, Carrie McCarthy, Hussain Currimbhoy, dir. / USA/ 2020 / 12 mins / completed
Dr. Rana Adhikari worked as a mechanic in a small gas station in Florida in the late 80s. When a hurricane knocked out the power to his garage,  he found himself at a local library to pass the time. Here he discovered Einstein’s publications on space-time, and a life long journey in physics began. Rana worked on the team that built LIGO, the machine that recorded gravitational waves for the first time in 2017. A remarkable achievement that won the Nobel Prize that year.

Screened at DOC NYC, San Francisco Documentary Film Festival, RAW Science Film Festival in Los Angeles,  and Cineglobe Film Festival at CERN Geneva.
