Energy Signal – Dark Matter
European astronomers said that an anomalous energy signal detected by an orbiting satellite could be a telltale of the enigmatic substance known as black matter. Some years ago, astrophysics calculating the amount of matter in the Universe arrived at the startling discovery that ordinary material – atoms- comprises perhaps as little as 5% of the stuff in the cosmos. The space-based experiment known as Pamela, was launched in 2006 and carries instruments designed to investigate dark matter particles. Dark matter, which believes to account for 23% of the Universe, has been detected only indirectly, through the gravitational pull it exerts on the visible matter. Another theory suggests that dark matter must be a new particle that interact so weakly with ordinary matter that it does not produce light-emitting reactions.
