"Italian Big Science is very strong in the study of gravitational waves. Our National Institute of Nuclear Physics has created, together with CERN, a school and tradition in this regard. We want to put the observatory, the so-called Einstein Telescope, in Italy. It is a European infrastructure: we want it in Italy, we want it in Sardinia, we want it in Barbagia, to put together urban regeneration, control of the territory and great opening of Italy to a new dimension of the scientific community, so further internalization. Because research calls for research, and research calls for researchers. We already have great research in this sense, and we want to create our own Italian CERN". Anna Maria Bernini, Minister of University and Research, said this during her speech at the 49th Cernobbio 2023 The European House-Ambrosetti Forum. "Through Research Institutions such as the National Institute of Nuclear Physics, the Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology, and the National Institute of Astrophysics," Bernini concluded, "we have implemented a strategic European infrastructure, which is called the Einstein Telescope. A telescope for the first time underground. An observatory that does not see but listens to gravitational waves".
