3 Neutrinos can probe the interior of stars. Neutrinos are transparent to the Milky way. Neutrinos are efficient to carry out energies from the star explosion. Neutrinos from Sun, Supernova explosion, Galaxy, Dark-Matter Annihilation, etc.

21 Solar neutrino oscillations (ν e ν µ /ν τ ) are established by Super-Kamiokande and SNO data. ( m 1 ~ 1-4 ev ) LMA solutions are favored by no spectrum distortion and no day/night effect.
