Photons take some time to bubble up to the surface of a supernova, while neutrinos zip right out. Perfect way to get advance warning of a supernova in our galaxy.

Nature research paper: Single-shot parity readout of a minimal Kitaev chain

Single-shot parity readout of a minimal Kitaev chain - Nature
A measurement strategy is described that is able to read out the parity of minimal two-site Kitaev chains in real time, by coupling two Majoranas and resolving their quantum capacitance.
