  • Dark matter could color our view of the universe

    Dark matter has two central properties: it has mass like regular matter, and unlike regular matter, it reacts weakly or not at all with light. Neutrinos satisfy these two criteria, but neutrinos move through space at nearly the speed of light, making them a form of hot dark matter. The observations we have suggest that dark matter is cold.

  • Japan successfully launches new cargo spacecraft to deliver supplies to International Space Station
