Seafloor detector picks up record neutrino while under construction

SMRTR summary

A Mediterranean Sea neutrino detector captured the most energetic neutrino ever observed, with an energy of 60-230 Peta-electronVolts - over 10,000 times higher than particles in the Large Hadron Collider. The neutrino likely originated outside our galaxy, potentially from distant blazars, and its detection could provide new insights into high-energy cosmic phenomena.
