Let those neutrinos through

By Hamish Johnston

It’s the International Year of Astronomy and here at physicsworld.com we are travelling the world (from the comfort of our desks mostly) in search of weird and wonderful astronomy events.

First stop is my hometown (sort of), where buses, subway trains and trams are adorned with advertisements illustrating the mysteries of the cosmos. As well as neutrinos, the Toronto transit ads explain how you can watch evidence of the Big Bang on an old TV and why we are all star dust.

The ads are placed by the CoolCosmos programme at the University of Toronto’s Dunlap Institute for Astronomy and Astrophysics. Take a look at their website for the other ads.
