It came from outer space! For the first time ever, scientists have traced the path of a #neutrino back to its cosmic origins in the distant universe. The ghostly particle traveled for 3.7 billion years at nearly the speed of light before passing through the IceCube Neutrino Observatory in Antarctica, where scientists detected it and then enlisted telescopes around the world to find its home. The discovery could herald a whole new way to study the skies. 📷: The IceCube lab lit by stars and the southern lights. (Martin Wolf/IceCube/NSF)
