Neutrinos are elementary particles, that have very small masses, and hence travel at close to the speed of light.

Although they interact very rarely, a starship's sensor array contains instruments capable of detecting them.


The presence of elevated neutrinos may indicate the presence of a ship – possibly cloaked.

The Bajoran wormhole also emits neutrinos before opening, which gives Deep Space 9 a moment to prepare before any ship comes through.
