For those of you who don't follow these sorts of things, there was a major announcement today in Physics/Cosmology. The "BICEP2" group claims to have found (signs of) gravitational waves in the cosmic background microwave radiation. This could give us a window into what happened in the very ealiest moments after the big bang. Sean Carroll, (occasional lurker at this blog, I believe), has two great posts on his own blog explaining what this is all about: a general background post and a post covering some of the specifics of the data reported.
