Summary The LIGO uses interferometry to detect gravitation waves that stretch space and hence the arms of the detector by different amounts. The 4 km length of the detector arms give the observatory that ability to detect fairly short gravitational waves whereas collisions of super massive black holes generate much longer waves.
