Mysterious cosmic ray observed in Utah came from beyond our galaxy, scientists say By Katie Hunt, ... The “Oh My God particle” detected more than 30 years ago was 320 exa-electron volts.

The most powerful cosmic ray, named the Oh-My-God particle, was detected more than 30 years ago and measured around 320 exa-electron volts (EeV) when it was discovered.

Researchers recently detected an "ultra-high-energy" cosmic ray, which is the most powerful since the famous "Oh My God" particle was detected in 1991. They have no idea where it came from.

It's being nicknamed "God's hand." It's about 1,300 light years away from Earth.The picture was taken by the Dark Energy Camera, which is mounted on a telescope in Chile.The image shows a cometary ...

It rivals the single most energetic cosmic ray ever observed, the “Oh-My-God” particle that was detected in 1991, the study found. Cosmic rays are charged particles that travel through space ...
