Why Japan is Hollowing Out a Mountain

n this video, we explore Japan's centuries-old tradition of hollowing out mountains for a groundbreaking scientific experiment known as the Hyper Cameo Candy. This $600 million project, overseen by the University of Tokyo, aims to create the world's largest neutrino observatory inside a mountain, providing a unique environment for detecting subatomic particles. The construction involves a massive cylinder carved into the rock, and the observatory, located 681 meters below the mountain peak, will be lined with layers of concrete and filled with a pure water tank to detect neutrinos through Cherenov radiation. The video highlights the scientific significance of particle physics, showcasing how it has contributed to medical advancements and technological innovations. The host, Fred Mills, takes viewers through the construction process and emphasizes the experiment's potential impact on various fields.
