"There is so much that we just don’t know."

Now THAT is the right statement.

The dark matter is between their ears! The reason for the ever expanding universe is a defect in the speed of light. It slows up over distances and therefore creates the illusion of more rapidly expansion. This is a lot more reasonable explanation than “dark energy” clouds outside of our observable universe. Come on! Einstein theorized that light can be bent by gravity and that was subsequently proven. I hold that if gravity can bend it then gravity can slow it.
