One thing you ought to know... Ron Hatch, the man who holds most of the patents involved in GPS as I read it, claims that relativity is a bunch of BS and that GPS works entirely on Newtonian physics and that if you tried to make it work on Einsteinian physics, it would not work.

If LIGO/Virgo succeeds in detecting gravitational waves then Ron Hatch is debunked in favor of Einstein's General Relativity. If LIGO fails then Hatch is vindicated and Einstein's theory fails.

It is really that simple. And most physicists believe that LIGO will succeed.
