The bicep project is a project i started way back in two thousand ad one. It stands for background imager of cosmic extra galactic polarization. We can only see it with a with a micro wave telescope to look at the imprints of these waves on the c m b, or even the cm b. Einstein predicts that will cause waves of gravity to percolate throughout the cops. Have we found it with ligo? Are they looking for you? No, leigo cannot see this. It's way too weak.
