IceCube at the South Pole

IceCube is the world's largest neutrino telescope. Located at the south pole, the detector instruments a cubic km of

ice using approximately 5000 PMTs. Instrumenting in 3D allows the detector to point along the path of the neutrino,

enabling a wide array of studies. IceCube is focused primarily on the very high energy astronomical neutrinos and

what they tell us about the universe. This talk will give an overview of IceCube and some of the highlights from its

science. A heavy focus will be placed on the life of a winterover at the south pole and other operations there.
