Dark Universe | Chapter 2 - The Discovery Of Dark Matter

What holds galaxies together? In this second episode of our series, we dive deep into the mystery of Dark Matter. 🌌

We follow the story of Vera Rubin, the astronomer who defied the conventions of her time by discovering that stars at the edges of galaxies were spinning at an inexplicable speed. Her discovery changed physics forever: there is an invisible mass, a "backbone" that supports everything we see, yet we cannot touch it or detect it with light.

In this video, we will explore:

Vera Rubin’s Legacy: How her observations in the 1970s revealed the cosmos' best-kept secret.

Rotating Galaxies: Why don't peripheral stars fly off into deep space?

The Invisible Stage: The difference between the matter we know and this enigmatic substance that makes up 27% of the universe.

Get ready to discover that the stage where stars dance is much denser and more mysterious than we ever imagined.
