The Radio Neutrino Observatory in Greenland utilizes Greenland's lattice ice structure and stations of antennas to detect ultra-high-energy cosmic neutrinos, which are fundamental particles that rarely interact with matter. By chance, a neutrino will interact with the ice structure which emits radiation in the form of radio waves. Optimizing antennas is essential to enhance detection capabilities, offering a new perspective to unravel the mysteries of the universe.
