First results of Ice Cube detector

I will present the first results of Ice Cube, the neutrino detector located on Antarctic station Amundsen-Scott. Since 2007 it has detected more than 5000 neutrinos and determined their sources on the sky with one degree accuracy. Their distribution agrees well with expected background except one point source which might be the ''first light'' of this telescope. When Ice Cube is finished in 2011 it will be a completely new tool to observe our universe.
