The Gravitational Wave Background is a signal older that the Cosmic Microwave Background that may help us understand how the Universe was created. The International Pulsar Timing Array and NanoGrav are a global collaboration to detect and characterize the low-frequency gravitational waves by measuring the radio emission of millisecond pulsars thousands of lightyears away.
