Several other groups already had galaxy simulations they were using to do other science, so the team asked one to see their data. When they found the dark matter imprint they were looking for ...

This characteristic aligns with the hypothesis of a dark galaxy, primarily composed of dark matter. Measurements indicate that unexplained matter in G185.0-11.5 is 21 times more abundant than normal ...

First spotted in 2024, FCC 224 is a dwarf galaxy that boasts a dozen luminous, tightly bound clusters of stars — an unusually rich population for its size, typically seen in larger, dark-matter ...

Still, not all scientists agree with the dark galaxy designation of the clump. The report further notes that Westmeier thinks the object is most likely a regular gas cloud at the Milky Way's edge. The ...

Dark galaxies are theoretical, starless systems whose discovery could help astronomers better understand galaxy formation. The new candidate was found within a large, fast-moving cloud of gas ...

A dark galaxy AC G185.0-11.5 is part of the larger AC-I Complex, which is what astronomers call a high-velocity cloud (HVC).

Dark Galaxy is an action based rogue-like top-down shooter. You pilot a space drone to oppose the insectoid like species called Minaripods and get stronger by travelling to different star systems ...

A neighbor galaxy of the Milky Way could offer fresh clues in the 90-year-long quest to determine the nature of dark matter.

Scientists discovered a galaxy, AGC 114905, that may not have dark matter, and they are not quite sure how. It could challenge ideas of how galaxies are formed.

Traditionally, the term galaxy referred to a collection of stars and gas; then, dark matter was added. “Now it seems that the need for stars may not be necessary in the definition,” she said.
