Cool.

Purch owns SA dang... maybe we could merge with them. 🙂

And very cool announcement. I still think were in the dark ages when it comes to physics. Its like were at pre electricity/radio waves days when it comes Quantum stuff. See how much they changed the world

Interesting.🙂

Wow, who would have though particles would be coming at us from below! Very strange and interesting, thanks VL!

Very interesting! I conjecture that since the sensors are airborne over the south pole, the particles travel along the earth's magnetic field and don't penetrate the earth.

Well, they claim that three detection events in the IceCube observatory were of the same kind.

Now is Ice Cube at the south pole?

If you were looking for a place to build a neutrino detector consisting of a cubic kilometre ice, here on this 3rd rock from the sun, what other place would you choose than the very South Pole? :-)
