I am interested in purchasing a similar image. Do you have a high-res image of that blue sound wave you posted, or could you point me to where you got it?

A recent article talks about using using lots of millisecond pulsars as a gravity wave detector. So, the whole Milky Way is a gravity wave detector. Largest telescope i'm aware of. Couldn't find the article i'd read. But there's this: http://www.csiro.au/science/ps6a.html Another astronomy-by-sound idea is to listen for meteors. I've not heard any. I could blame noise pollution. But i probably wasn't close enough. Astronomy by touch: pick up a meteorite. Astronomy by taste: lick it. At least two people (both women) have tasted the Moon. But there's always the Earth. Astronomy by smell: "it smells like spent gunpowder," says astronaut Cernan of Moondust. There's always the Earth. Very cool.

Great article Rob :-D Ian My favourite is the black hole merger – such an anti-climax!
