OTD 10 years ago I arrived with my video crew at the @ligo.org observatory in Louisiana & interviewed Gabriela Gonzalez. 12 hours later LIGO made the historic discovery of #gravitationalwaves. The next 3 days were the most amazing of my career and led to our award winning documentary “LIGO”.

OTD in 2015 I interviewed LIGO’s Kip Thorne (2017 Nobel in Physics) on camera, the 1st day of what has become a ten-year, and multiple film, collaboration with @LIGO.org. My archive of LIGO’s astonishing discoveries now resides for researchers in the Les Guthman LIGO Video Archive @caltech.edu 🧪

Always a joy to interview on 🎥 LIGO’s wonderful Rai Weiss (Physics Nobel 2017) now 92, in his office at MIT. Our 5th interview over 9 years. #LIGO
