| Sep 25, 2021 at 11:19 | comment | added | ProfRob | "We should not hand out Nobel Prizes...". AFAIK, Hossenfelder (or her audience) played no role in awarding/judging the Nobel prize and "Have we really measured Gravitational Waves?" is just clickbait. | |
| Sep 25, 2021 at 11:13 | comment | added | uhoh | @ProfRob yes, the prize is generally awarded to "contributions towards the understanding of" or similar. That point alone probably makes for a good answer. | |
| Sep 25, 2021 at 11:02 | comment | added | ProfRob | "Was the Nobel prize for gravitational waves handed out based on a hand-drawn theoretical curve?" This is a ludicrous summing up of 30 years work by thousands of scientists. | |

What happens in the astronomical community has a human element that can not be separated from the scientific one e.g. https://astronomy.stackexchange.com/a/34531/7982 and https://astronomy.stackexchange.com/a/34531/7982
