Scientists from Pennsylvania State University and an observatory in the South Pole, IceCube, working closely and collaboratively discovered a unique galactic object that holds the insight into the cradle of the Universe. For centuries, curious scientists and astrophysicists leveraged "photons", or light emitted by cosmic objects, to study stars and space. According to The Philadelphia Inquirer's July 12, 2018, article, scientists discovered the so called the basic unit of cosmic birth, high-energy neutrinos. The particle and ability to study and dissect it now will empower the scientists to peer through the time and distance to analyze distant object and massive black holes which emit neutrinos. One of the primary sources of neutrinos known to the scientific community is Orion constellation. Off this constellation's left shoulder, about 3.8 billion lightyears away, a galaxy is being sucked into a giant massive blackhole, resulting in blasting out of X-ray, gas, stars, high-energy particles and radio waves originating from events such as colliding stars, scientists will lean on neutrinos to zero-on this cosmic act of violence in the coming days.
