Astronomers: Dark Matter Guides Universe’s Structure

by lschach on Apr.05, 2009, under Science

A ten year study of 100,000 galaxies now offers compelling proof for the existence of ‘dark matter’. What’s more,

Saying that “the universe we see is really quite structured,” one of the lead researchers explained that the 10-year “census” of galaxies near our own Milky Way offers powerful evidence that this invisible dark matter “seems to hold the galaxies together.”

Stuff like this always makes me wonder if we are all part of something much larger, much grander than our puny little world  and our ant-like existence. Are super-novas an example of a galactic ‘viral’ attack? Are black holes the ‘tumor’ of galaxies? Or is it all much bigger even than that?

Read the details here. Better yet, here.
