It’s proposed to use a global seismic antenna (GSA) as a gravitational telescope, arbitrary “quiet” seismic stations are its elements, and aperture of GSA must be of the order 10,000 km. The relative displacements of various points of the Earth are detected by GSA, these displacements are described as quasi-harmonic elliptical signals generated by gravitational waves, their amplitude ≈ 2.5 * 0?15 m. It is found that these waves cause deformation (strain) of the order h ≈ 10?21. Pulsars are a natural source of periodic waves. The fact of confident registration of gravitational wave is confirmed by detection of quasi-harmonic signals in the frequency band near 6.023 Hz for 90 hours (confidence probability of detection is close to 1). It is found that a small part of the rotation energy of associated pulsar (ε ≈ 10?5) is expended on the radiation corresponding to the gravitational wave.
