Watch this beautiful movie about black holes seen as waves. According to Einstein's math, when two massive black holes merge, all of space jiggles like a bowl of Jell-O as gravitational waves race out from the collision at light speed. Similar to ripples on a pond, gravitational waves are ripples in space and time, a four-dimensional concept that Einstein called spacetime.

So it seems that the study of waves is a good way to understand reality.
