From where do these neutrinos come? The IceCube Neutrino Observatory near the South Pole of the Earth has begun to detect nearly invisible particles of very high energy. Although these rarely-interacting neutrinos pass through much of the Earth just before being detected, where they started remains a mystery. Pictured here is IceCube's Antarctic lab accompanied by a cartoon depicting long strands of detectors frozen into the crystal clear ice below. Candidate origins for these cosmic neutrinos include the violent surroundings of supermassive black holes at the centers of distant galaxies, and tremendous stellar explosions culminating in supernovas and gamma ray bursts far across the universe. As IceCube detects increasingly more high energy neutrinos, correlations with known objects may resolve this cosmic conundrum -- or we may never know. via NASA ift.tt/1KZafJn

The combination of the white container in rotation moulded polythelene and the integrated blue TL light underneath that turns the whole into a luminous object, inevitably evokes the spirit of coolness and freshness. By turning in the container upside down, its cavity can be used for long and small bottles.

The next round is on me...
sorry, had to work all weekend so here is a snapshot from last weekend when I did nothing even close to work - I'll have fresh material soon.

Because it had just been taken out of the river, this ice block was clear. Once it is out in the air for a while it'll go opaque
