Astronomers have found compelling evidence that challenges the very existence of dark matter, suggesting that our current understanding of the universe might need a major revision. By carefully analyzing the rotation curves of galaxies—how stars move at different distances from the galactic center—they found that the mysterious dark matter may not be necessary to explain these movements after all. This finding adds a new twist to the growing evidence against dark matter, which has long been believed to make up 27% of the observable universe.
