A photo showing 4 cakes, decorated with the theme of gravitational waves: two cakes depict a gravitational wave black hole merger, one cake depicts a celebrating GW150914 black hole (wearing a party hat!), and one writes "10 anni di onde gravitazionali" - 10 years of gravitational waves.
A photo showing the scientists within the Trieste gravitational wave group, with the celebratory cakes.
The Trieste gravitational wave group celebrated the 10th anniversary of our first gravitational wave detection, #GW150914, with a public lecture and themed cakes!

The title of the article "10 years of Gravitational Wave Astronomy". The text is written on a purple background. Behind the text are two gravitational-wave signals, GW150914 and GW231123. The signals are displayed as timeseries data - which is like a wiggle increasing in amplitude from left to right, before reducing. Image credit: y LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA/Sascha Rieger.
In this edition, collaboration members past and present share their reflections and memories of the first detection of #GravitationalWaves. Stories range from the very first investigations of #GW150914 to sharing the discovery with the world and the amazing decade of discovery since! 🔭

Salud, buen domingo y feliz 10 aniversario LIGO!
Hace exactamente 10 años, a las 9:50 UTC del 14 de septiembre de 2015, una onda gravitacional llegaba a la Tierra, sacudiendo los detectores de LIGO en Livingston y Hanford, por primera vez en la historia.

10 years ago, the first gravitational wave #GW150914 was detected by the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration. This was a significant step to confirm LISA as a flagship mission, and we as a community are profoundly grateful for the decades of research effort that made the discovery reality.

Looking back at my excited blog post describing the first detection of #GW150914
cplberry.com/2016/02/11/g...
I can still feel the warm glow of seeing the results for the first time

Happy 10th Birthday #GW150914! 🥳
This was the first direct detection of gravitational waves, and since then, we've detected signals from 100s of collisions between black holes and neutron stars! I'm excited to see where the next 10 years will take us 🤩

Dire que dans 2 mois, cela fera 10 ans que la 1ère onde gravitationnelle a été détectée #GW150914
Une prouesse scientifique qui a ouvert de nouveaux champs d'observation et de compréhension de notre univers grâce aux détecteurs LIGO et Virgo

7 years ago today we detected our first gravitational-wave signal with @LIGO #GW150914 https://cplberry.com/2016/02/11/gw150914/
Today we are having our LIGO @ego_virgo @KAGRA_PR Meeting, planning for our next observing run and making detections every day
