Studying the highest-energy particles in the cosmos provides scientists with a way to test how well they understand the cutting edge of physics. Recently, scientists using a giant particle detector at the South Pole have set records for the highest-energy observations of mysterious subatomic entities called neutrinos. If neutrinos happen to be traveling faster than light, a feat that violates Einstein's relativity theory but is allowed by some newer rival theories, these measurements provide a w...
