Researchers using new simulations suggest that the Milky Way’s past collisions may have reshaped its dark matter core. This distorted structure could naturally explain the puzzling gamma-ray glow long ...

Astronomers using data from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope have observed what appears to be a clump of dark matter left behind from a wreck between massive clusters of galaxies. The result could ...

A mysterious gamma-ray glow from the Milky Way's core has scientists divided. While pulsars were the leading theory, new simulations suggest dark matter collisions could also explain the observed ...

Astronomers have long been puzzled by two strange phenomena at the heart of our galaxy. First, the gas in the central molecular zone (CMZ), a dense and chaotic region near the Milky Way’s core, ...

These stars might be using dark matter as fuel. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. "All good things must come to an end." That adage ...

Astronomers continue to struggle in their hunt for dark matter, the elusive and mysterious form of matter that dominates the mass of the universe. But one astronomer proposes that, instead of building ...
