Do you know Super-Kamiokande?

Have you ever heard "Super-Kamiokande"? It is observatory of Cerenkov radiation. I like this observatory because it is very very big while what researcher observe is very very small ,large scale and the appearance of this observatory is so cool! 

This facility located in Kamioka Town, City, Gifu Prefecture and in 1000 meters underground. It can block radio waves, cosmic background radiation and so on so that observations will not be hindered by making it underground.

It can save 50000 liter, and there is about 13000 photomultiplier tube. And it is expected in neutrino research. Actually, Japan is the most advanced neutrino research in the world!

Someday I want to visit there. And Hyper-Kamiokande is under construction. Experiment are scheduled to begin in 2027. So I am very excited.
