A single neutrino event in the Mediterranean Sea, with reconstructed energy 30 times higher than anything previously detected. What it means — and what it doesn't.
Off the coasts of France and Italy, two kilometer-scale arrays of glass-sphere optical sensors are being sunk into the Mediterranean Sea. Together they form Europe's answer to IceCube — and in 2025 they may already have caught the highest-energy cosmic neutrino ever recorded.
