The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) in China has released its first major findings on neutrinos, also known as ghost particles. - The detector, located 700 meters underground, measures neutrinos from nuclear reactors and cosmic sources.

- Initial results confirm unprecedented sensitivity and could challenge the Standard Model of particle physics. - The project involves over 700 researchers from 17 countries and cost over $300 million.

- These findings mark a milestone in understanding the universe's fundamental particles.
