Abstract
Gravitational waves detected from well-localized inspiraling binaries would allow to determine, directly and independently, both binary luminosity and redshift. In this case, such systems could behave as “standard candles” providing an excellent probe of cosmic distances up to z<0.1 and thus complementing other indicators of cosmological distance ladder.
