Perkil8r Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 A news release by the European Southern Observatory: http://www.eso.org/public/news/eso1709/?lang Quote New observations indicate that massive, star-forming galaxies during the peak epoch of galaxy formation, 10 billion years ago, were dominated by baryonic or “normal” matter. This is in stark contrast to present-day galaxies, where the effects of mysterious dark matter seem to be much greater. This surprising result was obtained using ESO’s Very Large Telescope and suggests that dark matter was less influential in the early Universe than it is today. The research is presented in four papers, one of which will be published in the journal Nature this week. And so the Dark Matter saga continues and plot thickens......
