The European Gravitational Observatory (EGO) is a research facility located in Italy, specifically in the region of Tuscany. It is primarily dedicated to the study of gravitational waves, which are ripples in spacetime caused by some of the most energetic and violent processes in the universe, such as the collision of black holes or neutron stars. EGO is home to the Virgo interferometer, a large-scale gravitational wave detector.
