First neutrino interactions detected at Fermilab: A step toward cracking the dark matter mystery?
The detector can see a whopping 7,000 neutrino interactions daily
In a nutshell: Neutrinos are the most abundant particles in the cosmos. In fact, an astounding 100 trillion of them pass harmlessly through your body every second. Because they rarely interact with other matter, they've earned the nickname "ghost particles." Yet, despite their abundance, they remain some of the trickiest particles to detect in the subatomic world.

Six rogue planets spotted by James Webb Telescope in nearby nebula
Planetary Delights: A rogue planet is an interstellar body with planetary mass that is not gravitationally bound to any "parent" star or star-like object. The exact process by which rogue planets form is still under debate, but recent observations made with the James Webb Space Telescope may help dispel some of the mysteries surrounding these elusive galactic wanderers.
