Dark Matter is invisible to the human eye and to telescopes, but scientists are confident it exists due to its gravitational effects at galactic scales

Scientists have made a possible breakthrough in the hunt for dark matter — observing hints of it during an experiment about a mile (1.6 km) underground in South Dakota — though they stopped short of saying they have finally detected this elusive cosmic component.

Researchers described a particle interaction documented at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in the US.

Sept 1 : Scientists have made a possible breakthrough in the hunt for dark matter — observing hints of it during an experiment about a mile (1.6 km) underground in South Dakota — though they stopped short of saying they have finally detected this elusive cosmic component.The researchers described a particle interaction

A lone signal from an experiment in South Dakota doesn’t fit the profile of any other known particles, physicists say.

The discovery might pave the way for answering one of the biggest unresolved questions about our universe
