From Earth magazine, Nov. 1, 2018: DUNE is featured in a cover story in Earth Magazine. Print edition only.

From CERN Courier, Oct. 29, 2018: The world’s largest liquid-argon neutrino detector has recorded its first particle tracks in tests at CERN, marking an important step towards the international Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment under preparation in the United States.

From Black Hills Pioneer, Oct. 26, 2018: The new building will serve as housing for equipment that is currently located at the Ross complex, which will need to be moved in order to make room for the Long-Baseline Neutrino Experiment/Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment construction planned in the coming years.

From Live Science, Oct. 24, 2018: There are many huge unanswered questions in science, but it’s hard to beat “Why is there something, instead of nothing?” Fermilab scientist Don Lincoln explains how the study of neutrinos could answer it.

These international projects, selected during the process to plan the future of U.S. particle physics, are all set to come online within the next 10 years.

From FAPAESP’s Pesquisa, Oct. 18, 2018: Em meados de setembro, partículas vindas do espaço começaram a atravessar um tanque em forma de cubo com 6 metros de altura, instalado na Cern, na Suíça, e deixar rastros de luz que foram captados por detectores criados no Brasil.

From UFO Spain, Oct. 18, 2018: El mayor detector de neutrinos de argon líquido del mundo acaba de registrar sus primeras trazas de partículas, marcando el inicio de un nuevo capítulo en la historia de DUNE.
