Nas profundezas de uma colina no sul da China, um instrumento científico sem precedentes começou a escutar o sussurro mais antigo do Universo. O detector Juno, com suas 20 mil toneladas de líquido luminescente enterradas a 650 metros de profundidade, publicou seus primeiros resultados na revista Nature, alcançando a maior precisão já registrada em dois parâmetros de oscilação de neutrinos — partículas tão esquivas que trilhões atravessam cada ser humano a cada segundo sem deixar rastro. Não é ainda a resposta definitiva sobre a hierarquia de massas dessas partículas, mas é a confirmação de que
