Summary
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) in China has released its first major findings on neutrinos—tiny cosmic particles from the Big Bang that pass through matter undetected. The underground detector began collecting data in August and aims to unlock secrets about these elusive "ghost particles" and the origins of the universe.
