Incorrect. Dark matter is the modern day cosmological constant. It does not exist in reality. It's only purpose is to make the equations work.You could have fooled me.It almost sounds like you believe dark matter is God.They have been smashing atoms and observing subatomic particles for decades and not once have they discovered anything close to resembling dark matter and dark energy.
It doesn't exist.
Funny that most physicists think it does exist.
The 2011 Nobel Prize was awarded to the astronomers who actually discovered that the universal expansion was accelerating.
And we have no way of detecting what we call dark matter all we know is that there is something out there that is causing expansion to accelerate when the physics we understand tells us the opposite should be happening![]()
Wrong.
I do not believe in any gods.
I have made that quite clear.
You have no proof of dark matter but you believe it exists.
SOMETHING exists out there because we cannot explain what we are observing in the universe
How many thousands of years did humans not know atoms or subatomic particles existed?
How many thousands years did humans not understand genetics?
You seem to believe that not knowing about something means it doesn't exist.
The fact that we need a fudge factor to account for 5/6ths of all the matter in the universe should tell you something.
And the equations we have work they still fail to explain what we observe happening in the universe.
Even Einstein said that his cosmological constant was a failure so again what do you know that Einstein didn't and that Nobel Prize winning astronomers and physicists don't know?
For someone who likes to couch his arguments in science you certainly do have a closed mind.
Every single momentous scientific breakthrough came from theorizing about what we cannot explain.
You seem to theink there is nothing we don't know anymore.
