The Cubic Kilometre Neutrino Telescope, or KM3NeT, will take up enough ocean to fill 400,000 Olympic swimming pools.
Why detect neutrinos in the first place?, also known as "ghost particles", can carry information about distant regions of the cosmos that would otherwise be degraded.
This means that neutrinos have the potential to provide even more information than our most state-of-the-art space observatories, such as the Key to the construction are these separate ball-shaped spheres or telescopes. The video above shows one of these large balls being slowly rolled into the ocean. Once in position, they will be anchored roughly three and a half kilometers under the sea and used to wait for flashes of radiation that occur when the so-called ghost particles interact with the surrounding water.
