Frontiers of Knowledge: Counting All Solar Neutrinos - 2002-05-06. Scientists from various countries around the world succeeded in counting all the solar neutrinos that collide with the Earth at a depth of one and a half kilometers underground. Neutrinos are extremely tiny and elusive subatomic particles that pass through the human body in thousands every second without being felt. Mansour Farasioon, a scientific reporter for Voice of America, conducted an interview about this significant achievement with Dr. Kazem Omidvar, an Iranian physicist at NASA.
