Dark matter matters.

This isn’t new. I saw a discovery channel show years ago where they were doing dark matter experiments deep underground.

I read about those. So far nothing detected.

It’s got to be somewhere...

If you’re 8000 feet underground, and the lights aren’t on, all the matter around you is dark matter.

No it doesn't. This is the latest example of physicists saying "trust us, we're smarter than you" without any evidence to back up their claims. Gravity has a multiplying effect in planetary and stellar motion, so it is the simplest answer (Occam's Razor). They may be correct and there is a substance called "Dark Matter", but for a collective group of people who shun the thought of an Almighty God, they are rather hypocritical to tell us to just have faith.

I liked that show. Sad it got cancelled.

Well it makes sense looking for dark matter underground, where it's dark :)
If they don't find any dark matter, would they consider other theories of gravity, I've heard there are some that describe the cosmos quite well without the injection of dark matter or other fudge factors.

Arm-waving is so much more fun when you get government grants!

They had to invent the words “dark matter” and “dark energy” because their sacred equations don’t explain reality!

Idiots! your equations are wrong! find equations that explain reality and you’ll be really smart.

Dark matter has been identified for quite a while now. Credit goes to Dr. Randell Mills, founder and CEO of Brilliant Light Power, for his paradigm-shifting technology that generates lower-energy states of hydrogen, along with huge amounts of power, the characterization studies of which precisely match the signatures of dark matter.

Yes, their sacred equations ARE wrong precisely because they made it all up, adding new variables and dimensions of reality (up to 13 now, I believe - I lost track). It took the genius of Dr. Randell Mills to find the right equations - closed-form equations with no variables, accurate up to 8 decimal places, the limit of measurements - that accurately describe reality.

Here, you can look it up and download Dr. Mills’ Grand Unified Theory based on classical physics, and use his modeling software that gives the exact solutions to properties of atoms, molecules, and compounds:

A real scientist would question the basic theory that requires invisible undetectable phenomena to work. Otherwise it’s indistinguishable from theology.

It is pretty dark a mile underground so it is a good start.
Keep digging.
