“Messengers,” an immersive documentary featuring IceCube, is now playing internationally across a series of film festivals this fall. The new film by Canadian director Jeffrey Zablotny features the South Pole neutrino experiment as part of a surreal, poetic exploration of three groundbreaking particle physics experiments across the world. From a…
In 2022, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the South Pole announced evidence for high-energy neutrinos spewing from the “nearby” active galaxy NGC 1068. One of the brightest X-ray sources in the universe, NGC 1068 is an active galactic nucleus (AGN) with a central, supermassive black hole that actively gobbles up…
The summer season personnel have not yet begun arriving at the Pole, but the winterover crew needs some time to get ready for them, so preparations are underway. There are lots of things to do, one of which of course is snow removal. Above we see the IceCube Lab (clearly…
