Virgo site in Italy
The Virgo site near Pisa in northern Italy. With a third interferometer joining the existing two LIGO facilities in the US, the scientific teams were able to work out the likely location of a distant collision of black holes with much greater precision - and put conventional telescopes on alert to look out for any electromagnetic evidence.
