They presented their&nbsp;work June 6 at the Planck 2019 conference in Granada, Spain, and it has been submitted for publication.&nbsp;</p> <p>Dark matter is thought to make up just over a quarter of our universe, with most of the rest being even-more mysterious dark energy. It cannot be seen directly, but dark matter鈥檚 presence can be detected because its gravity determines the shape of distant galaxies and other objects.&nbsp;</p> June 10, 2019 - 2:05pm Andy Fell /curiosity/news/new-candidate-dark-matter-and-way-detect-it
