"It highlights gravity's possible hidden complexity and invites a reevaluation of where dark matter effects originate." ...

For decades, astronomers have treated dark matter as the invisible scaffolding of the cosmos, a mysterious substance that ...

According to new research dark matter is considered to be the most puzzling substance in the universe. It has been a thorn in the side of physicists; despite outweighing ordinary matter by a ...

An astronomical "conspiracy" about how stars and dark matter interact has been disproved by scientists. This debunked theory was originally suggested to explain why matter appears to decrease in ...

Computer simulations by astronomers support the idea that dark matter -- matter that no one has yet directly detected but which many physicists think must be there to explain several aspects of the ...

The mystery of dark matter—unseen, pervasive, and essential in standard cosmology—has loomed over physics for decades. In new ...

Our common understanding of the universe tells us that all matter and energy were created at the beginning of time during a period of rapid inflation called the Big Bang. However, in 2023, Katherine ...

There was an excellent live podcast with Rajendra Gupta, Brian Keating and several others a couple days ago discussing current data and findings. Its interesting as Gupta proposed a new paradigm that ...

The standard model for how galaxies formed in the early universe predicted that the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) would see dim signals from small, primitive galaxies. But data are not confirming ...

A research team led by physicists at the University of California, Riverside, reports tiny satellite galaxies of the Milky Way can be used to test fundamental properties of “dark matter” — nonluminous ...
