Dark Matter

7 minutes read Our present understanding of the observable universe suggests that around 71% of the total mass-energy budget of the universe is due to Dark Energy, around 24% is the non-baryonic, non-relativistic Dark Matter (DM). And, the rest 4% is the normal matter (i.e. proton, neutron, electron, etc.) which constitutes galaxies, stars, asteroids, planets, and us. To explain the Dark Matter is one of the unsolved problems in physics. Understanding this can help us to unravel the mystery of the universe.
