| contents | LISA, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, due to launch mid-2035, is a large class space mission by the European Space Agency (ESA). In partnership with NASA and ESA-member states, ESA is on track to launch what is expected to be the first space-based gravitational wave detector. By hosting detectors in space, one gains access to a lower frequency band of gravitational wave sources and, with them, a plethora of new science. To maximise this scientific gain, ESA and NASA selected 20 scientists for the LISA Science Team to carry out and/or lead the necessary actions leading up to LISA's launch. We give a short overview and update of the LISA mission, its science objectives and related waveforms, as well as the work of the LISA Science Team as of April 2026. |
