They were to find the gravity waves but stuck with something even more interesting:

I find it funny how they always try to aim BIG. Like the theory of everything and so on. About 0,00000008% of the human race has gone into space and yet we think we can already make ignorant theories that supposedly explain everything. The scientific establishment of today is a joke. Instead of making things that will help all mankind with their theories, instead they talk shit that benefits barely anyone and get a high paycheck for it too, while almost more than a billion people are suffering from hunger.
if u look at it form the other side,we do exactly the same here.Throwing bunches of exotic theories and mearly anything comes out of it for real...ok nobody pays us for it,but instead of sitting here we could better go and work one extra hour and donate the income for poor and starving people.
Ok both ur and mine opinion is harsh but somehow true.
Not always others are to be blamed huh ...
