DESCRIPTION:One of the current frontiers in cosmological research is the s
 earch for the imprint of gravitational waves in the polarization pattern o
 f the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). Such gravitational waves are hypo
 thesized to have been produced at the very beginning of time during an ult
 ra brief burst of exponential expansion - called Inflation. The BICEP/Keck
  telescopes observe from the South Pole in Antarctica\, and are the curren
 t world leaders in this experimental quest. I will describe the telescopes
 \, the data\, and the analysis which leads to the current limit on the ten
 sor-to-scalar ratio of r<0.036\n(95%).
