DESCRIPTION:Probing the Warped Side of the Universe with Numerical Simulat
 ions and Gravitational Waves Our Universe has a “warped side”: objects
  and phenomena that are made not from matter\, but rather from warped spac
 e and warped time. Examples include black holes\, cosmic strings and the b
 ig-bang singularity in which the Universe was born. Thorne will describe t
 his mysterious warped side\, the quest to simulate it using supercomputers
 \, and the quest to observe it using gravitational waves
