Nice article, explaining some interesting phenomena.

One correction however. You say “ In 2034, NASA plans to launch the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA), on a quest to better understand gravitational waves.”

Actually, LISA is planned to be launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) as their third large “Cosmic Vision” mission, not by NASA. NASA will of course be a significant partner in this ESA-led mission, and is already investing a great deal of money in developing technologies for LISA. Ultimately, ESA and NASA will agree as to which of these technologies will be infused into the mission.

The technologies currently being funded by NASA are a telescopes to collect the laser light arriving at each of the three LISA satellites from the other two (to enable the interferometry), ultra-stable low-noise lasers, an LED-based charge management system, a phasemeter, and a micro-Newton thruster system.

You can see some of these, as well as other astrophysics technology investments in a report released yesterday at https://apd440.gsfc.nasa.gov/images/tech/ABTRCoverandPage092519Final.pdf.
