I note with amusement that Dr. Khanna did not use Xbox 360s...

Very cool. Also, I learned that the plural of Sony is Sonies.

Gravitational waves are 'ripples' in space-time that travel at the speed of light.
The "speed" of gravity has been established? Or is it assumed?

Nice! Although this further verifies the theory that PS3 export is a risk to nations building WMDs. It’s apparently not that difficult to network these things together and write the code to run nuclear triggers/critical mass demos.

So, if these can be networked together to perform massive calculations related to gravity, something tells me that they can do the same for modeling nuclear weapons detonations. Is the PS3 banned from export to Iran or North Korea???

They're networked together using an inexpensive Gigabit Ethernet switch. That's not an optimal solution for cross CPU communication. I imagine the application must run something akin to SETI@Home where discreet units of calculations are distributed across the available CPUs with the results being returned over the network. Presumably 16 PS3s isn't the maximum number that could be used for the project.
