Neutrino and dark matter experiments in a former iron mine in Minnesota appear to have escaped serious harm from a fire, but damage to
laboratory infrastructure means it will take at least a few more weeks to get them running again.
While that's a small number, «Small changes in sea levels in certain places
mean very big changes in the kind of protection of
infrastructure that you need to have in place,» said Erik Ivins, a geophysicist at NASA's Jet Propulsion
Laboratory in California and one of the contributors to Thursday's study.
