The goal of the LISA mission is to position three spacecraft in a triangular orbit measuring nearly 1.6 million miles on each side, following Earth's orbit.
Gravitational waves are created during a collision between two black holes and were first theorized by Albert Einstein in 1916; they were detected almost a century later.
The LISA mission is scheduled to launch in the mid-2030s, with the potential to uncover significant insights into black holes and the Big Bang.
The detection of gravitational waves could provide enormous potential for understanding the universe, which is difficult to study through other means.
