Astronomers find evidence of universe's 'background noise', first predicted by Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein in 1916 proposed the existence of gravitational waves as an outgrowth of his ground-breaking general theory of relativity. Scientists described the universe's gravitational wave background as the equivalent of hearing the hum of a large group of people talking at a party, without being able to distinguish any individual voice.
