This huge detector consists of 5,160 sensors embedded in a 1x1x1 km volume of glacial ice deep beneath the geographic South Pole. The purpose of this huge installation is to detect neutrinos, the &#8220;ghost particles&#8221; of the Universe. The IceCube Upgrade will add more than 700 new and enhanced optical sensors in the deepest, purest ice, greatly improving the observatory&#8217;s ability to measure low-energy neutrinos produced in the Earth&#8217;s atmosphere.
