A massive dark matter halo may explain the strange 5th point of this 'Einstein Cross'
Astronomers have discovered a rare cosmic alignment that may reveal hidden dark matter, offering a new way to study the invisible substance that makes up most of the universe.
Scientists say there's a 90% chance we could spot an exploding black hole in the next decade
New research suggests that if primordial black holes exist, there is a 90% chance our telescopes could detect one exploding in the next 10 years.
'We need to broaden our search, and now we can.' Scientists are set to unleash a powerful new weapon in the hunt for dark matter

Dark matter could create black holes that devour exoplanets from within
Dark matter could gather at the heart of Jupiter-sized worlds, eventually creating a black hole that eats its way out of its exoplanet host.
The Milky Way's faintest satellite may not be what astronomers thought. 'These results solve a major mystery in astrophysics'
A distant galaxy nicknamed "Cosmic Grapes" is bursting with massive star-forming clumps — far more than expected — offering fresh clues about how galaxies grew in the early universe.
What if we've been thinking about dark matter all wrong, scientist wonders
Two exotic new theories suggest dark matter could be either made from tiny black holes or formed by Hawking radiation at the cosmic horizon.
Discovery of 250 'mini galaxies' could help scientists pin down the nature of dark matter
Only a fraction of the size of the Milky Way, these galaxies have thus far been too faint for most telescopes to spot.
