ok. I wanted to read this article but it's a little above my caliber of knowledge in the science dept. Maybe that is why about the fourth paragraph I began to get sleepy. But I totally woke up when I discovered the diagram shows the Eiffel Tower is at the bottom of the South Pole!!! Holy neutrinos, Batman!

[Hot Tabasco]

Deep inside the ice sheet at the South Pole, it smashed into an electron and produced a particle that quickly decayed into a shower of secondary particles.

I was there, I saw it, I thought it was just a firecracker going off..........Hmmm, whadda ya know.

I saw a show about this detector. Amazing technology!

I almost worked on that project until a Democrat congress cancelled the project, 25 years ago. Someone else must have finally built it.

Described by one fan as:

“It’s like the weirdest f-ing thing that you’ll ever go to… it’s a collection of, like, actual Nobel Prize winners giving away prizes to real scientists for doing f’d-up things… it’s awesome.”

And exactly what is the use of these electron antineutrinos?

[Nateman]

I calculated that the energy of that single neutrino was equal to the energy of a drop of water falling 18 inches.Amazing that a ghostly sub atomic particle can pack so much into it. If I remember correctly they even traced it to a galaxy billions of lights years distant.

fundamental-particles. are not these the things that blast through us and the earth itself? This is why I am amazed that computers and rom chips can maintain memory without corruption.

And if my lefty, millennial step-niece astrophysicist has her way, they’ll be able to perform this experiment in Kansas in a few decades (under the new North American ice sheet; she’s one of those ‘scientific hypocrites’ who ignore the science and curtsy to Mann’s lies).

When I rread the headline for a split second I thought this guy

had found a new career !

What would have happened to a human body if hit by that single particle?
