Answer
Neutrinos detected in Davis' experiment originated from the Sun. This discovery confirmed Theory of solar fusion, revealing that energy emitted by the Sun is a result of nuclear reactions occurring in its core, where immense pressure and temperature cause hydrogen atoms to fuse into helium, releasing substantial amounts of energy in the form of photons and neutrinos.
