- How to hear the universe : Gaby González and the search for Einstein's ripples in space-time / by Valdez, Patricia,author.; Palacios, Sara,illustrator.;
Includes bibliographical references."In 1916, Albert Einstein had a theory. He thought that somewhere out in the universe, there were collisions in space. These collisions could cause little sound waves in the fabric of space-time that might carry many secrets of the distant universe. But it was only a theory. He could not prove it in his lifetime. Many years later, an immigrant scientist named Gabriela González asked the same questions. Armed with modern technology, she joined a team of physicists who set out to prove Einstein's theory. At first, there was nothing. But then... they heard a sound. Gabriela and her team examined, and measured, and re-measured until they were sure. Completing the work that Albert Einstein had begun 100 years earlier, González broke ground for new space-time research. In a fascinating picture book that covers 100 years, 2 pioneering scientists, and 1 trailblazing discovery, Patricia Valdez sheds light on a little known but extraordinary story." --AD1020L- Subjects: Biographies.; Picture books.; Einstein, Albert, 1879-1955; González, Gabriela, 1965-; LIGO (Observatory); Gravitational waves; Women physicists; Women; Women.; Womyn.;
