Gravitational Waves are a new form of energy that is too sensitive to measure. The study of Gravitational Waves paves a unique way to approach the new era of universal science. It is quite interesting to note that experimental proof of the early theory of Einstein is successfully proven after many years. The manuscript depicts the concepts of Gravitational Waves, propagation of Gravitational Waves, its effect on objects on Earth and various factors that affect the measurements along with their method of approach to detect Gravitational Waves. Detecting Gravitational Waves is a tedious process and it requires a very highly sensitive experimental setup to carry out the detection as well as on considering the current trend of technology it is observed that detection faces massive limitations. Detection of Gravitational Waves opens up a new way for understanding supermassive binary systems such as neutron stars and black holes and also for studying on Early universe history.
