The project at the South Pole (not the ) transformed a cubic kilometer of transparent Antarctic ice into a Cherenkov detector that observes neutrinos from GeV to PeV energies. This experiment discovered very high energy cosmic neutrinos and identified the first cosmic sources, the blazar TXS 0506+056 and the active galaxy NGC 1068. IceCube is a multipurpose research facility which has also made precision measurements of neutrino oscillations and made important contributions to cosmic ray physics, dark matter searches, and even glaciology.
