    I hope we can figure out what this was, because by all accounts it was something extraordinary.
    Jr is right. We are seeing the open end of the space time continuum tunnel the alien mother ship is using to warp to earth to enslave us.

      While many people take the existence of dark matter for granted, it's still a theory that has yet to be proven. But new evidence could bolster support for dark matter theories.


      Good article on it. You're right, it hasn't been proven, but there is definitely something there.

        hot dark matter, cold dark matter & warm dark matter has to do with velocity & not actual temperature. fun fact part 2 lol

            I stepped in some dark matter in my back yard earlier. I wasn't about to test the temperature, but judging by the consistency i would say it had a high velocity.

                I saw this today, but I thought we knew this from a little while back? Is there something new the detected that they didn't before?

                  But I really do hope it goes supernova in my lifetime. Would be one of the coolest experiences we could ever have on this planet.

                    I've thought about that. I think there would be mass panic because 99% of people would have no idea what's happening. I picture myself in a busy city block yelling calm down everyone it's just an exploding star lol.

                        Thinking about it that way, maybe I'd rather it not happen in my lifetime. With so many people who believe so many idiotic things and with so many that reject science for one dumb *** reason or another, I can imagine how crazy people would go.

                                There’s been a lot of amazing space news coming out recently.

                                They found the beginning of the formation of a planet. Never been observed before, at least not at this stage.
