Description
IceCube has discovered a flux of galactic and extragalactic neutrinos as well as provided evidence for neutrino emission from two active galaxies, NGC-1068 and TXS 0506+056. Nevertheless, the class of objects responsible for extragalactic neutrinos is unknown; the Milky Way flux is due to an unknown combination of individual sources and diffuse flux due to cosmic ray propagation. Answering these questions requires a new generation detector focused on precision measurements via significant improvements in angular resolution. In this talk, I will discuss the status and prospects of the Pacific Ocean Neutrino Experiment (P-ONE), located in the Cascadia basin off the west coast of Canada. With modern instrumentation and longer scattering length in seawater compared to Antarctic ice, a kilometer-scale P-ONE can increase the number of extragalactic sources by an order of magnitude and can prove realistic models for Galactic sources.
