The IceCube Neutrino Observatory has discovered an extragalactic neutrino flux and observed neutrinos from the Milky Way. Even though two active galaxies, NGC 1068 and TXS 0506+056, are candidate neutrino sources, the classes of objects responsible for the extragalactic flux are not known. And the Milky Way flux should be a combination of yet to be identified individual sources as well as a diffuse flux due to cosmic ray propagation in the Galaxy. Understanding the galactic and extragalactic fluxes requires a new generation detector focused on precision measurements that provide significant improvements in angular resolution. In this talk, I will discuss the status and prospects of the Pacific Ocean Neutrino Experiment (P-ONE), located in the Cascadia basin off the west coast of Canada. By leveraging modern instrumentation and longer scattering length in seawater compared to Antarctic ice, a kilometer-scale P-ONE can increase the number of extragalactic sources by an order of magnitude and can probe realistic models for Galactic sources.
