Clump of dark matter may loom near solar system

Read about it here...

From the article :

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A balloon-borne instrument soaring high over Antarctica has found evidence of a possible large clump of mysterious so-called dark matter relatively close to our solar system, scientists said on Wednesday
...
One explanation is that the electrons may have been spawned as dark matter particles collided with one another, triggering their mutual annihilation, according to Louisiana State University physics professor John Wefel.

Scientists think perhaps 25 percent of the universe is made up of dark matter, which responds to gravity the same way as does regular matter such as stars and planets and the like.
...
Scientists think regular matter amounts to about 5 percent of the universe's mass. The remaining roughly 70 percent is thought to be composed of dark energy, a mysterious presence that may be making the universe expand at an accelerated pace.

Anyone know more about this???

yes, but i heard it was entering orbit and crashing into the white house

get it? dark matter? heheheheheh

na, seriously...i don't think it matters (hehe pun). That crap has been there for millenia and hasn't hurt us...don't worry about it. hell for all we know, maybe that's why we evolved here...maybe it adds ingredients to the mix that makes our little cake possible.

it does no such thing to any matter it interacts with,
if it were to interact with anything to do with us, it would 'explode' with catastrophic results
