Background
I've been an electronics engineer since leaving college in 1970. Even before then I was active as a ham radio operator and sent some signals into space on the VHF bands. Superconductivity and astronomy remain two of my active interests.
Opinion
I might suggest a Kepler-like space telescope be designed to detect rapid positional shifts of deep-field stars. The rapid rotation of binary black holes or binary neutron stars would cause starlight passing by to be shifted side-to-side due to gravitational lensing. This would allow us to find massive binary objects much deeper in space than LIGO can.
