Description

The detection of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory heralded the birth of neutrino astronomy, opening a new window onto the non-thermal Universe. Over the last years, IceCube has identified the first steady neutrino source emission, the Seyfert galaxy NGC 1068, as well as produced the first image of our own Milky Way captured with neutrinos. However, the origin of most astrophysical neutrinos remains unknown. Meanwhile, the KM3NeT collaboration continues the deployment of their detector in the Mediterranean Sea, and with a fraction of the final instrumentation they observed the most energetic neutrino ever detected, suggesting a possible cosmogenic origin. In this talk I will review the current observational landscape of high-energy neutrino detectors and the prospects of next-generation endeavors such as the Radio Neutrino Observatory in Greenland, P-ONE in the Pacific, and other planned neutrino telescopes.
