KM3NeT neutrino telescope
@km3net.bsky.social
KM3NeT is a neutrino telescope with two detectors - ARCA and ORCA - at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea. It is also an international consortium of research institutes and university groups collaborating to operate the two detectors - www.km3net.org

Unravelling the masses of the three #neutrino types?!
With the #NWO money @nikhef.bsky.social received for #KM3NeT we can bring this dream a step closer.
In addition we received funding for a prototype of an acoustic neutrino detector extension of KM3NeT!

🛥️ Welcome ORCA33! 🌞
We had a new successful sea campaign:
1) We reconnected 4 lines previously installed and tested on node 1 to the newly deployed node 2
2) We deployed and connected 5 new lines to node 2
Big thanks to everyone involved for this great step!
