Scientists may have "seen" dark matter for the first time, thanks to NASA's Fermi gamma-ray space telescope. If so, this would mark the first direct detection of the universe's most mysterious substance.

"We detected gamma rays with a photon energy of 20 gigaelectronvolts (or 20 billion electronvolts, an extremely large amount of energy) extending in a halolike structure toward the center of the Milky Way galaxy," Totani said. "The gamma-ray emission component closely matches the shape expected from the dark matter halo."

Dark matter

Denial aint just a nebula in the Milky Way*

Seems like exactly the kind of thing that a simulation would say to confuse us. *

If we can't trust the University of British Columbia, who can we trust?*

I'm not sure it would be good news if the fundamental forces of the universe are weakening over time. That sounds a little ominous.

If you’re still alive 10 billion years from now, you should adjust*

Dark matter always seemed like a mcguffin to me*
