47 Outlook The IceCube excess marks the birth of HE neutrino astronomy! background probability 4.1σ: 4 in 0000 What s next: 3rd year of data to be un-blinded & 4th year of data collected by May 2014 Do we see individual sources or just a diffuse background? What can we learn from spectrum (in particular a possible PeV-ish break) and flavor composition? Is the corresponding CR population responsible for UHE CRs? Neutrino astronomy also closes in on cosmogenic neutrino fluxes. Will we already see the first hints with IceCube or do we have to wait for future EeV neutrino upgrades (ARA, ARIANNA,... )?
