- “The models were right”: astronomers find ‘missing’ matter
Astronomers have discovered a huge filament of hot gas bridging four galaxy clusters At 10 times as massive as our galaxy, the thread could contain some of the Universe’s ‘missing’ matter, addressing a decades-long mystery
- The Models Were Right! Astronomers Locate Universes . . .
This discovery of that missing matter suggests our best models of the universe were right all along It could also reveal more about the "Cosmic Web," the vast structure along which entire galaxies grew and gathered during the earlier epochs of our 13 8 billion-year-old universe

- Astronomers just found the universes missing matter: Here . . .
The 69 radio frequencies the team studied were located at distances ranging up to about 9 1 billion The results revealed that about 75% of the universe's ordinary matter resides in the space
- Astronomers Find Universe’s ‘Missing’ Matter, Validating . . .
While this discovery finds a significant portion of the “missing” normal matter, it’s important to remember that normal matter only accounts for about 5% of the universe’s total mass-energy The vast majority – about 95% – is made up of mysterious dark matter and dark energy, which remain undetected directly
