Have you ever wondered what makes up 85% of all matter in the universe and yet remains one of the biggest enigmas in modern physics? Enter dark matter. Despite being an integral part of the formation of galaxies, we have never directly observed it as it emits no light. But what if there was a breakthrough? A discovery that could change everything we thought we knew about this elusive entity.
The James Webb Space Telescope has sent an image that could unravel the mystery of dark matter and solve one of the greatest puzzles of our time. So, are you ready for this latest discovery and join us on a journey to explore the unknown depths of our universe? Let’s dive in and discover the truth about dark matter.
Dark matter, the invisible and mysterious substance that only reveals itself through its gravitational force, is believed to constitute a staggering quarter of the entire universe, overshadowing all visible matter such as galaxies, stars, and planets.
The idea that we remain ignorant of what makes up the majority of our universe might seem shocking, but the truth is that our understanding of dark matter has eluded us ever since Swiss American astronomer Fritz Zwicky first proposed its existence in 1933. Despite its prominence in the cosmos, the enigmatic substance has managed to evade direct detection to this day.
