Scientists trace high-energy ghost particle to the 'Shadow Blaster' galaxy - Space

Astronomers have identified a star-forming galaxy called 'Shadow Blaster' as the likely source of a high-energy neutrino detected by the IceCube Observatory. This discovery provides new insights into the origins of cosmic ghost particles that travel across billions of light-years.
Why it matters
Understanding the sources of high-energy neutrinos helps scientists map the most violent and energetic processes in the universe.
