Gravity Wave Measurement


I watched Head Games on the Science Channel about LIGO's inability to measure gravity waves using light, even for years.


It just seemed to me obvious.

What if light is not a valid measurement of gravity waves?

What if light were affected by gravity waves also so that no change would be noticed by an increase or decrease in distance measured by such light?

Why do you believe that light is not affected by gravity waves, and, therefore, making it not a valid measurement of gravity waves?
