Description

Cosmic particles, these unnoticed particles that surround us all the time, are
the focus of this day. Students, teachers and scientists get together to talk and
learn about cosmic particles from space and answer questions like:
What are cosmic particles?
Where do they come from?
How can they be measured?
And what can we learn from them?
