Original: A New Test Upends a Long-Held Assumption About Dark Matter
A newly reported test is challenging a long-standing assumption about dark matter, the invisible substance thought to make up most of the universe's mass. The finding, covered by science outlets, suggests scientists' working picture of how dark matter behaves may need revision. Physicists are now weighing what the result means for existing models of the cosmos.
Why now: Dark matter research attracts broad attention whenever a core assumption is questioned by new experimental results
