Along with a whole range of alternative theories of gravity, variants of the massive theory of gravity, i.e. the theory of gravity, in which the graviton has mass, have been actively discussed in recent years. Theorists have proposed versions of massive gravity theories that address the shortcomings of early versions of such theories. Astrophysicists and experimental physicists have been discussing limitations on the graviton mass from various astronomical observations. In particular, in the first LIGO paper, where the discovery of gravitational waves from binary black holes was reported, a limit on the mass of the graviton was obtained from the analysis of the profile of the gravitational wave signal. In the paper graviton mass constraints were obtained by analyzing the trajectory of a bright star in the vicinity of the center of our Galaxy, using observations from the GRAVITY and Keck groups. Briefly other astronomical ways to limit a graviton mass were discussed.
