A team of researchers using the James Webb Space Telescope has produced the most detailed map of dark matter to date.

"It highlights gravity's possible hidden complexity and invites a reevaluation of where dark matter effects originate." ...

Astronomers have produced the most detailed map yet of dark matter, revealing the invisible framework that shaped the Universe long before stars and galaxies formed. Using powerful new observations ...

Findings allow scientists to learn more about dark matter’s influence on stars, galaxies, and planets ...

By Will Dunham WASHINGTON, Jan 26 (Reuters) - Using observations from the James Webb Space Telescope in a patch of the sky covering almost three times the area of the full moon, scientists have ...

The sharpest dark matter map ever reveals the invisible cosmic scaffolding that built galaxies, stars, and ultimately life itself.

Scientists are shining a brighter light on dark matter thanks to a new high-resolution map, unveiling the invisible material ...

Dark matter doesn't absorb or give off light so scientists can't study it directly. But they can observe how its gravity warps and bends the star stuff around it.

Astronomers used James Webb Space Telescope data to determine the density of the universe's most mysterious "stuff." ...

Scientists have created the highest resolution map of the dark matter that threads through the universe—showing its influence on the formation of stars, galaxies and planets.

Look up at the night sky and it is easy to believe that stars and galaxies are where the universe keeps almost all of its substance. Precision measurements of the cosmos tell a different story. Most ...

Unfortunately, all this tells astronomers only that dark matter must be there, not what it really is. The evidence for dark matter is all based on how it interacts with gravity at very large scales.
