Experiment NOvA has seen a 4.4σ signal of muon neutrino appearance in a 2 GeV muon antineutrino beam at a distance of 810 km, using 12,33x1020 protons on target delivered to the Fermilab NuMI neutrino beam line. It is alternative measurement to earlier muon antineutrino disappearance from the same beam. These two measurements demonstrate neutrino oscillations.
