Show affiliationsResults are now appearing from the first generation of long baseline gravitational wave detectors that use laser interferometry for motion sensing. In this short review the history of the field will be briefly discussed, and the principles of the novel laser interferometry developed will be outlined in the context of present and future instruments.
