“LIGO“ - Director’s Cut

Les Guthman’s director’s cut of his “LIGO“ documentary. It includes a full chapter with Kip Thorne and Alessandra Buonnano on the cosmology of LIGO not seen in the original version, and a deeper history of the long 50-year search for these once-elusive messengers from the “Warped Side“ of the universe: gravitational waves.
