Nobel physics prize honours 'ghostly messengers' from space

Original: Nobel physics prize hails 'ghostly messengers' from space

The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to scientists for work on neutrinos, the near-massless particles dubbed 'ghostly messengers' because they pass through matter almost unnoticed. The award recognises discoveries about these elusive particles, which travel vast distances across space and carry clues about the universe's most violent events, drawing broad attention from the physics community.

Why now: The annual Nobel Prize announcements always draw global attention, and this year's physics award highlights a dramatic field of particle astrophysics.
