Every second the earth is hit by several particles with enough energy to lift a kilogram bag of sugar several centimetres into the air. These particles were discovered in 1922, and form part of the continuous stream of cosmic rays. Yet despite over 60 years of observation, no one knows where they come from. Do they originate from within our galaxy? Or from somewhere in the depths of the universe? Professor Arnold Wolfendale talks to John Maddox about the source of the rays.
