Talking About What You See
Some of the LIGO science concepts are waves, wave propagation, light resonance, gravity, interference, and light. Online exhibits, movies, questions, and demonstrations will guide you. Experience hands-on activities at LIGO Livingston. Once you have experienced the activities, "snacks", and exhibits you will want to talk and join interactive discussions about what you have seen and heard. In this section of the website you will be presented with several ways in which you can do just that! Docents will be available to assist you.

Let's Start Talking! (links to Online Communities below open in new windows).

There will be several online communities that will engage you and others in interactive discussions about the LIGO concepts! As the groups get started there will be links in this area. Some are already started. So come back frequently to see who's online.

• Voice-Enabled Discussion Boards will be available and led by docents.
• LIGO Community Network
• LIGO Community Chat Room
• Use Meebo Instant Messaging from this site to Meebo An SUBR LIGO Guide
  • If you'd like to contact other people with Meebo click here.
• LIGO Community Blog
• LIGO Webinars
• LIGO Online Seminars
• Internet Radio Show for LIGO participants (requires download and installation of Paltalk software from Paltalk.com)

If you have any questions feel free to request SUBR LIGO Information.

Docents are the heart of LIGO!
The docents in this project are being trained to teach about the LIGO physics concepts with the interactive, engaging, and exciting exhibits at LIGO Livingston and with the "snacks" at LIGO SUBR. Some of these pacesetters are:
