‘Illuminating the Dark Universe’

‘Portraits of the earliest universe and the lacy pattern of galaxies in today's sky confirm that the universe is made up largely of mysterious dark energy and dark matter. They also give the universe a firm age and a precise speed of expansion.’

•Ordinary matter takes up ~5% of total mass; 95% of matter are dark matter

•matter accounts for 0.3 of total energy; 0.7 are ‘dark energy’ (vacuum energy)

•the universe is flat (k = 0)

•If there were no dark matter:

•Galaxies 星系would be much smaller: most stars would have escaped

•Galaxy clusters 星系團could not have formed

•Hot gas surrounding most galaxy clusters would have escaped

•

Dark Matter – need them for the structures in the universe! Numerous proposals for what they are, but mostly particles yet undiscovered!!!!!!

MILKY WAY GALAXY

TWO DWARF GALAXIES FOUND NEAR
MILKY WAY GALAXY

Star systems hard to spot despite closeness because they’re so dim

WASHINGTON - Two dim dwarf galaxies are the Milky Way’s newest-known galactic companions, astronomers studying a vast swath of the sky reported on Monday.

This brings the total number of dwarf galaxies in the Milky Way’s cosmic neighborhood to 14. But theorists believe there could conceivably be hundreds more.

The two newly detected dwarfs were found in the direction of the constellations Canes Venatici (the hunting dogs) and Bootes (the herdsman), scientists studying the Sloan Digital Sky Survey said in a statement.

Love

Love The Bliss!
You are friendly, kind and caring
Sensitive, loyal and understanding
Humorous, fun, secure and true
Always there... yes that's you.

Special, accepting, exciting and wise
Truthful and helpful, with honest blue eyes
Confiding, forgiving, cheerful and bright
Yes that's you... not one bit of spite.

You're one of a kind, different from others
Generous, charming, but not one that smothers
Optimistic, thoughtful, happy and game
But not just another... in the long chain.

Appreciative, warm and precious like gold
Our friendship won't tarnish or ever grow old
You'll always be there, I know that is true
I'll always be here... always for you.
