Astronomers suggest the Milky Way may not host a supermassive black hole at its centre after all. Instead, an enormous clump of dark matter could be exerting the same gravitational pull, explaining both the extreme stellar motions near the core and the galaxy’s smooth outer rotation.


Dark Matter's Grip On The Milky Way Explained 

A Japanese scientist thinks he has observed dark matter at the centre of the Milky Way. He says the halo in the galaxy is a signal being emitted by gamma rays. In October, another group of researchers had also presented similar findings.

Another study claims signals at heart of Milky Way triggered by dark matter

Scientists think they have finally found evidence for the existence of a cosmic object that has only existed in theory. Dark matter has never been seen, but some researchers think its proof lies at the centre of the Milky Way.

Eerie glow at the centre of Milky Way could reveal a cosmic giant never seen before

Why haven't scientists found dark matter? One scientist thinks it is probably because it doesn't exist at all. Dark matter remains merely an assumption to date, and there has never been any proof that it is real.

Why haven't we found dark matter yet? Because it doesn't exist, one scientist claims

The observable universe extends to about 46.5 billion light years in radius. This boundary exists because light from more distant regions has not had time to reach us since the Big Bang, 13.8 billion years ago.

The observable universe is just 5% of reality, 95% remains invisible!

Astronomers call this the observable universe, and its scale and limits reveal both the progress of science and the mysteries still unresolved.

Galaxies have always been characterised by dark matter. Dark matter is the mysterious stuff that fills the universe. Over 80% of matter in the universe is made up of material scientists have never seen. But wait! There is a galaxy out there that is devoid of any dark matter. A distant galaxy has baffled astronomers.

A galaxy without dark matter? The discovery leaves scientists baffled

Scientists at Europe's physics research centre will on Tuesday (July 5) start delivering proton collisions in the 27 kilometer-long Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the machine that found the Higgs boson particle, after a shutdown for maintenance and upgrades was prolonged by COVID-19 delays.
