You need to go onto iplayer and watch the iirc Horizon programme about this. It was on about 3 weeks ago. With that Prof djalili chap.  Apparently is not true as the boffins miscalculated the distance from underneath the mountain to the detector. Fascinating though.

Einstein wouldn't be able to live in todays world with computers as he spent his last dying days trying to disprove transistor theory.

Next question - is light a wave or a particle?

Its a particle when stationary and a wave when moving but can be both stationary and moving at the same time. Or something like that. Its a facinating subject physics and quantum physics more to the point. I don't believe that science has even scratched the surface with it yet. More complex than the human brain could comprehend. The true origin of reality.
