Part 2/9:
The universe is a strange and complex place, composed of about 5% normal matter, 25% dark matter, and an astounding 70% dark energy. While scientists have studied neutrinos and their interactions for decades, the observations have incited more questions than answers, especially regarding the unseen forces that govern the cosmos. One major area of inquiry is the anomaly observed within neutrino behaviors that might hint at the existence of a new type of neutrino dubbed the sterile neutrino. This particle may not interact through known forces, adding yet another layer to our perplexing understanding of physics.
