A tiny particle travelling through space just rewrote the record books. Scientists caught this particle, called a neutrino, deep under the Mediterranean Sea. It carried more energy than any neutrino ever seen before. Think of a neutrino as nature’s ghost. It passes through almost everything – rocks, planets, even our bodies – without leaving a trace. “These particles bring us special messages from the most powerful events in space,” says Rosa Coniglione, who helps lead the research team. The discovery happened in an unusual place: underwater. Scientists built a large network of light sensors on the seafloor. When the record-breaking … Continue reading Record-Breaking Neutrino Detected Under Mediterranean Sea
