Researchers have found evidence of high-energy neutrino emission from NGC 1068, an active galaxy in the constellation Cetus. The detection was made at the National Science Foundation-supported IceCube Neutrino Observatory, which reported its first observation of a high-energy astrophysical neutrino source in 2018.
