New Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey Has Produced A Detailed Map Which Shows Dark Matter In The Universe

A team of international researchers have just released a new map through the Hyper Suprime-Cam survey (HSC) that shows the universe’s three-dimensional distribution of matter — including dark matter — in what is currently the deepest wide field map of its kind. As Phys.org reports, Carnegie Mellon University’s Rachel Mandelbaum explained that the new HSC […]

Scientists Discover Galaxy With 400 Times Less Dark Matter Than Most Others Its Size

Scientists Discover Galaxy With 400 Times Less Dark Matter Than Most Others Its Size

Scientists have discovered a galaxy which contains 400 times less dark matter than the majority of other objects its size, making it extremely rare. This unique galaxy has defied all odds when it comes to what researchers know, or thought they knew, about this heavily mysterious type of matter. According to Space.com, galaxy NGC 1052-DF2 […]

Astronomers Spot Signal From Universe’s First Stars, Hint At Dark Matter’s Influence On Early Universe

Astronomers Spot Signal From Universe’s First Stars, Hint At Dark Matter’s Influence On Early Universe

Astronomers have gotten a glimpse of the earliest days of the universe, picking up a signal from some of the first stars created after the Big Bang. The new findings could also point to dark matter having an influence on the early universe beyond its gravitational pull, and offer some insight on the substance believed […]

New Study On Dwarf Galaxies Raises More Questions Than Answers Regarding Dark Matter Model

New Study On Dwarf Galaxies Raises More Questions Than Answers Regarding Dark Matter Model

Scientists are baffled by new observations from 13 million light-years away, where a group of satellites, or dwarf galaxies, orbits the much larger elliptical galaxy Centaurus A. And while this isn’t a particularly unique phenomenon, what’s struck scientists as peculiar is how the satellites’ movements do not seem to mesh with existing theories about dark […]
