-New study sows doubt about the composition of 70 percent of our universe
“We don't know much about dark matter other than that it is a heavy and slow particle. But then we wondered -- what if dark matter had some quality that was analogous to magnetism in it? We know that as normal particles move around, they create magnetism. And, magnets attract or repel other magnets -- so what if that's what's going on in the universe? That this constant expansion of dark matter is occurring thanks to some sort of magnetic force?"
