Install a 3.6km deep seabed telescope

A more than 800m telescope will be installed at a depth of 3.6km under the Mediterranean sea.
This telescope is used to detect elusive particles such as neutrinos, when they come from outer space to Earth.

>>>The most "terrible" telescope begins to operate

The KM3NeT telescope (worth £ 210 million, funded by the European Union) is designed to understand the trail of high-energy particles plunging to Earth, helping scientists understand more about the universe, including Big Bang.

KM3NeT is also expected to reveal completely new, unexplored phenomena because it is impossible to detect them when using traditional methods to observe the sky.

Much of what people know about the universe comes from observing, analyzing different frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum, such as visible light, X-rays .

Many objects emit high-energy particles that the current telescope cannot detect.

Model KM3NeT is operating on the southern coast of France. A larger template will work within the next 3 years. The full KM3NeT telescope will contain more than 12,000 sensors.
