<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New
Roman",serif;color:black">Recent direct detections of
gravitational waves from binary black hole mergers opened a
completely new type of astronomy. Very recently,
gravitational waves from binary neutron star mergers were
detected, followed up by roughly 70 electromagnetic
telescopes. Such multimessenger astronomy already brought us
very important and new implications in various aspects of
physics. In this talk I will give an overview of the current
status of this new gravitational wave astronomy and what we
have learnt so far in terms of astrophysics, nuclear
physics, gravitational physics and cosmology. I will then
explain what we expect to find in future in terms of
fundamental physics with the up-coming multimessenger
astronomy.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
