Most Powerful Neutrino Ever Seen May Have Been Identified By Unfinished Deep-Sea DetectorA detector preparing to be lowered into the Mediterranean where it wil capture showers of light created by cosmic rays and neutrinos. Some of these detectors have picked up what is probably the highest energy neutrino ever observed.

Unexplained Gamma-Ray Signal Hints At Unknown Feature Beyond Our GalaxyThis artist’s concept shows the entire sky in gamma rays with magenta circles illustrating the uncertainty in the direction from which more high-energy gamma rays than average seem to be arriving. In this view, the plane of our galaxy runs across the middle of the map. The circles enclose regions with a 68% (inner) and a 95% chance of containing the origin of these gamma rays.
