According to a rumor doing the rounds in the market, physicists could have finally found ripples in the fabric of spacetime called gravitational waves. Though, nothing has been confirmed by the scientists at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), a California lab that is looking for these waves.

The gravitational waves discovery would be among the biggest breakthroughs in physics, seen in a century.
