Halzen states that his ignorance helped him with the idea. According to Halzen, the project simply got lucky that the ice was so clear – the scientists did not know this in advance. #NobelovaCena #astronomie #neutrina (translated)
However, the chairman of the Nobel Committee for Physics, Mark Pearce, also mentioned Halzen's tenacity and vision, which paved the way for a new kind of astronomy. #NobelovaCena #astronomie #neutrina (translated)
Francis Halzen won the Nobel Prize in Physics for the development of the IceCube detector, which discovered high-energy neutrinos coming from space, thus opening new possibilities in astronomy. #NobelovaCena #astronomie #neutrina (translated)

Caleb announced the discovery over a year ago at a conference in Montreal, but the news is only just being made public now. #astronomie #snelleradioflitsen #heelal (translated)
This beautiful, new result greatly broadens our horizon. One billion light-years is "relatively close," says flash expert Joeri van Leeuwen of the radio astronomical institute Astron in Dwingeloo, who was not involved in the discovery himself. #astronomie #snelleradioflitsen #heelal (translated)
Astronomers have detected a powerful and mysterious radio burst from a small galaxy located no less than 11 billion light-years from Earth, which may provide new insights into the structure of the universe. #astronomie #snelleradioflitsen #heelal (translated)
British astronomers have discovered the 'phoenix planet,' a new gas giant orbiting a burnt-out star and formed from the remnants of a dead star, which could provide insights into the future of our solar system. #feniksplaneet #wittedwerg #astronomie (translated)
