Planets made of "dark matter" found: It's darker than you think
Dark matter may constitute entire planets, according to physicists. Here are all the details
Yang Bai, a theoretical physicist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and a team of physicists claimed some thesis about a mysterious substance known as "dark matter". Dark matter is a hypothetical material that can only exist by observing it not on another object. Theoretical physicists state that they cannot observe and detect it like ordinary matter that conducts it as baryonic matter.
Planets with dark matter might be true
Such possible objects can also be "measured" like distant ordinary exoplanets, Bai and colleagues say. "If this object is connected to a star system, it will behave like an exoplanet, albeit 'dark'. Although research is not yet certain, it has been underlined that there may be much more about space than we know.
There are a lot of unsolved mysteries in our universe, but dark matter has to be one of the biggest. What dark matter is, how it looks, and what it is made of are all unknown to us. The universe's gravity far exceeds the amount of baryonic matter is the only thing we are certain of. The way an exoplanet interacts with the light of its host star is largely the basis for our current methods of detecting exoplanets.
