Great article, but they seem to barely mention the most mind bending fact about the experiment: They are generating a 1km wide blast of neutrinos in suburban Chicago and sending it 450 miles through the ground to mine in Minnesota. I had to read parts of the article 3 times and follow some of the links to make sure that is really what is going on.
