It’s now 10 months later, have they recorded any other significant events, if not, is that a bit of a worry?

I’d be worried if I turned a detector on, got a huge positive result within two weeks but then saw nothing at all in the next 10 months. Is that the situation we have, and is it a source of concern regarding the original observation?

In an experiment like that with such incredible accuracy, is photon momentum something you need to compensate for? I mean if the mirrors are floating free and being “bombarded” with photons.
