Einstein Telescope (ET), is a proposed third-generation ground-based gravitational wave (GW) detector, currently under study by some institutions in the European Union. It will be able to test Einstein's general theory of relativity in strong field conditions, realize precision gravitational wave astronomy and enable multi-messenger astronomy.
