Despite being postulated by one of my heroes in the world of astronomy, viz. ‘Jan Oort‘, of cometary ‘Oort Cloud‘ fame, I always had this feeling that ‘Dark Matter‘ was hokey. As with Dark Matter there is also no proof of the existence of the Oort Cloud. But, the Oort Cloud makes sense to me. Not so Dark Matter. Very true that I am NOT an astrophysicist, but I have a better than average grasp on astronomy.
So, I am real glad that Dark Matter is being seriously questioned & rethought. Good idea. About time. Our knowledge of astronomy grows by the day. So, let’s have another crack at this. Good stuff.
