Dark matter serves as a plot device in the 1995 X-Files episode "Soft Light". [182] A dark-matter-inspired substance known as "Dust" features prominently in Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. [183] Beings made of dark matter are antagonists in Stephen Baxter's Xeelee Sequence. [184]
The results show that cold dark matter produces a reasonable match to observations, but hot dark matter does not. The sky at energies above 100 MeV observed by the Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) of the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO) satellite (1991–2000). 1988 – The CfA2 Great Wall is discovered in the CfA2 redshift ...
Dark oxygen production refers to the generation of molecular oxygen (O 2) through processes that do not involve light-dependent oxygenic photosynthesis. The name therefore uses a different sense of 'dark' than that used in the phrase " biological dark matter " (for example) which indicates obscurity to scientific assessment rather than the ...
Dark matter is called ‘dark’ because it’s invisible to us and does not measurably interact with anything other than gravity. It could be interspersed between the atoms that make up the Earth ...
New research challenges a long-held assumption about oxygen in the deep sea, with scientists finding oxygen produced without photosynthesis in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone.
The 4 Percent Universe: Dark Matter, Dark Energy, and the Race to Discover the Rest of Reality is a nonfiction book by writer and professor Richard Panek and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt on January 10, 2011.
Dark matter may not give off any light or radiation, but we might be able to watch it smash into atoms here on Earth. Dark matter makes up 85% of all matter in the Universe, but astronomers have ...
Astronomers discovered a second galaxy with no dark matter, NGC 1052-DF4, [17] which is another ultra diffuse galaxy - quite large, spread-out, and faint to observe. Discovering another galaxy with very little to no dark matter means the chances of finding more of these galaxies may be higher than cosmologists previously thought.
