I used to be in an adjacent field and we used to joke about when the HFT guys were gonna get working on some neutrino detectors & sources to signal straight through the Earth. You could use them for science on the weekends!

Sounds awesome, to be able to send a signal directly through the whole earth from point to point. It also sounds like origin story of X-Men or a new cancer

Reminds me of Hubble and the NRO satellites and how Hubble was an extra that they didn’t need.

Honestly I'm half-surprised no-one has tried this yet.
