"Muons could help answer some of the big questions of particle physics: Why are there so many particles? Are there hidden symmetries? Are there other, undiscovered subatomic forces?" symmetrymagazine.org/article/june-2…

The VERITAS Collaboration was featured in Monday night's episode of "Space's Deepest Secrets" on Science Channel, leading us to believe they're also Hollywood rock stars.

The team NASA's OSIRIS-REx took these photos of the asteroid Bennu. The team VERITAS recently used asteroids Imprinetta and Penelope to measure the angular diameter of the smallest stars in the night sky. Asteroids rock! #PunIntended

Much fun had at the Desert Shadows Middle School (Nogales) science night. Hope we inspired a whole new generation of muon hunters, too.

With 2,084,044 classifications we have retired 135,009 of 137,515 images and are currently out of data. Thank you to our 5,334 volunteers.
