Wondering about these mysterious particles?👻 Get an an up-close-and-personal introduction in I'M A NEUTRINO, an accessible picture book for the youngest scientific minds. indiebound.org/book/97815362… #neutrino #mitkidspress
#DidYouKnow there is a particle so elusive it is known as the ghost particle? The neutrino hardly ever interacts with matter - about 100 billion neutrinos pass through your thumbnail every second without you even noticing. The sun is the source of most of the neutrinos on earth.
