New rumours that gravitational waves have finally been detected

IS THIS it? There were rumours this week that gravitational waves may have been detected.

Gravitational waves are theoretical ripples in space-time produced by massive bodies accelerating through space. They were predicted as part of Einstein’s general relativity but have yet to be detected directly.

I’ve been hearing about the non-detection of gravitational waves by the most advanced detectors for a very long time. Could this be it? Possibly, detector accuracy has been improved a lot lately. But I wouldn’t give tuppence if this claimed detection was with a one of the many detectors that are old technology.
