WASHINGTON, Nov. 22, 2013 The photo released on Nov. 21, 2013 by the US National Science Foundation (NSF) shows the IceCube detector, the world's largest neutrino observatory. An international team of researchers said Thursday using a particle detector buried below the ice at the South Pole they have observed the first solid evidence for high-energy neutrinos that originate outside of our own solar system.,Image: 177471067, License: Rights-managed, Restrictions: , Model Release: no

This image shows a strong and colorful aurora over the IceCube Neutrino observatory in the South Pole. See SWNS copy SWCAlights: The stunning beauty of one of nature's most spectacular events has been captured in this series of spell-binding images. Every winter in parts of the northern Hemisphere the sky is illuminated by a dazzling, celestial light show. The Northern Lights - also known the Aurora Borealis - is caused when cosmic radiation hits electrically charged particles in the earth's atmosphere. The spectacular results have been captured in a series of 25 images selected in the Northern Lights Photographer of the Year competition.,Image: 575051492, License: Rights-managed, Restrictions: follow us on twitter - @swns
