Construction of detector module cryostats

Construction begins on massive underground neutrino experiment designed to unlock the secrets of the universe

Nearly a mile underground in South Dakota, scientists are building a world-leading experiment to study neutrinos and investigate some of the universe’s greatest mysteries, including how the universe took shape after the Big Bang and if neutrinos are the reason our world is predominantly made of matter. Currently, crews from Fermilab, CERN and SURF are assembling large steel beams to form the outer structure of the neutrino experiment’s massive detector modules.
