The observation of neutron star (NS) cooling provides a critical approach for gaining a deeper understanding of the dense matter in the NS interior. The cooling relies on many factors, including the symmetry energy of dense matter, superfluidity, and neutrino emissivity. I review the recent progress in the exploration of NS cooling and superfluidity, in particular the effects of short-range correlation (SRC) on the superfluidity, neutrino emissivity, and hence the cooling of NSs.
