Abstract

IceCube engages a local, national, and international audience through public outreach events like science festivals and educational game sessions, but also through educational programs during masterclasses and after school programs.

They have also developed materials like comics or VR games, partnered with artists, and launched a citizen science project: Name That Neutrino.
