A University of British Columbia astronomer with an international team
has discovered the largest structures of dark matter ever seen. http://mozhi.org/mozhi%20news/ns406.htm Measuring 270 million light-years across, these dark matter structures criss-cross the night sky, each spanning an area that is eight times larger than the full moon. |
