It will take a little longer to catch gravitational waves from some of the strongest sources-colliding black holes with millions of times the Sun's mass. These waves undulate so slowly that they won't be detectable by ground-based facilities. Instead, scientists will need much larger space-based instruments, such as the proposed Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, which was endorsed as a high-priority future project by the astronomical community.

'Flashy' Secrets of Merging Black Holes Revealed by Computer Simulations
It will take a little longer to catch gravitational waves from some of the strongest sources-colliding black holes with millions of times the Sun's mass.
