Dark matter is certainly one of the most interesting subjects in cosmology!

The observations of spiral galaxies in the 1970s not only opened our eyes to this “missing mass,” but also the integral role that it plays in galactic formation and dynamics!

Several candidates have been proposed for dark matter—including Weakly Interacting, axions and sterile neutrinos, and while each candidate offers a potential pathway to solving the dark matter mystery, we’re yet to uncover a direct detection.

The ongoing search sure is an exciting mission—thanks for sharing!
