These desktop backgrounds are based on the 2009 design of the LISA booth, which is staffed by the LISA Project at international astronomy and physics conferences. The image depicts
gravitational waves emitted from the massive black-hole binary at the center of a galaxy
; the blue waveform at the bottom is the signal that LISA will detect from such an event, and the four boxes at the top represent to the four main classes of LISA sources.

This animation tells the
story of the LISA mission
: the launch of the three spacecraft in a single rocket, their separation and orbit deployment, the acquisition of the laser links, and the drag-free operation of the LISA test masses. The movie was produced by the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics and by Milde Marketing.

for the mission, and an introduction to the main classes of
gravitational-wave sources
that will be observed by LISA.
