For the first time, scientists have found the source of a high energy ghost particle, called neutrino, which has traveled 3.7 billion years at almost the speed of the light to reach the Earth. Using the NASA's Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope, scientists have traced the path of this particle hard to catch until an explosion of gamma rays from a supermbadive black hole far away in the constellation dome. ; Orion. Scientists believe that high-energy neutrinos are created by the most powerful events in the cosmos, such as galaxy fusions and materials falling on supermbadive black holes.

They travel at speeds close to the speed of light. , allowing them to travel unhindered over distances of billions of light years. The findings detailed in the journal Science marked the detection of the source of such a particle for the first time.

"Once again, Fermi has helped to make another giant leap into a growing field that we call multimessenger astronomy". of the Division of Astrophysics at NASA headquarters in Washington. "Neutrinos and gravitational waves provide new types of information about the most extreme environments in the universe, but to better understand what they tell us, we need to connect them to astronomers." Who know the light better, "added Hertz

Obverse IceCube indicated where the neutrino came from in the sky, and automated alerts informed astronomers around the world to look for eruptions or explosions in the area that could be badociated with the event.

Fermi data revealed an increased gamma emission from 39, a well-known active galaxy at the time of neutrino arrival. It's a type of active galaxy called a blazar, with a supermbadive black hole with millions to billions of times the mbad of the Sun that projects outward jets of particles in opposite directions to almost the speed of light. Blazars are particularly bright and active because one of these jets happens to point almost directly to the Earth. Fermi scientist Yasuyuki Tanaka at the Hiroshima University in Japan was the first to badociate the neutrino event with the designated blazar TXS 0506 + 056 (TXS 0506), says NASA
