In this Letter, we report on the gravitational wave signal computed in the context of an $ab$ $initio$, three-dimensional simulation of a core collapse supernova explosion, beginning with a 15M$_\odot$ star and using state-of-the-art weak interactions. The simulation was performed with our neutrino hydrodynamics code Chimera. We discuss the potential for detection of our predicted gravitational signal by the current generation of gravitational wave detectors.
