Neutrino test hints at interstellar messages via Earth pass
Western Washington University researchers report the first successful demonstration that neutrinos can carry human messages through the Earth. In the Batavia Illinois experiment pursued with Fermi National Accelerator sensors and water tanks, neutrinos produced flashes of light after passing rocks and soil to reach the detectors. The study envisions future uses from extraterrestrial communication to earthquake forecasting and cosmology. Meanwhile a separate briefing notes ongoing U.S. China talks on human rights ahead of diplomatic ties. Patricia Derian, under secretary of state for human rights, declined to detail discussions but indicated problems remain and may improve with time.
