Does Dark Matter Exist?

It is claimed to make up more than a quarter of the entire universe however scientists just can't find it. More and more experiments report that they had failed to find any trace of it. Despite a brief flurry of excitement the Large Hadron Collider has so far failed to make any progress, and astronomical observations have also come up empty handed. Astrophysicists have piled up observations that are difficult to explain with it - that is Dark Matter. It is time to ask if Dark Matter really exists.

A Galaxy Without Dark Matter

"Dr Collins is cautious to conclude that the galaxy has no dark matter halo, based on the current evidence" now that is a very polite way of saying that it is nonsense. An unusually transparent galaxy about the size of the Milky Way is prompting new questions for astrophysicists. The object, with the great name of NGC1052-DF2, appears to contain no dark matter.If this turns out to be true, it may be the first galaxy of its kind - made up only of ordinary matter. Currently, dark matter is thought to be essential to the fabric of the Universe as we understand it.
