The dark object has a mass a million times greater than our sun's is located 10 billion light-years away and has no stars.

Ultrafine dark matter, millions of times lighter than electrons, could flow through the cosmos in waves. We might just have an easy way to check for tiny interactions between this dark matter and the ...

Dark matter, the invisible material that makes up the vast majority of the universe's mass, may collect itself to form atoms, a new simulation shows. Those "dark atoms" might radically alter the ...
