Dark Matter The Matter We CanT See

The article discusses the ancient Greek’s theory of the universe, which believed that the universe was made up of four elements: earth, air, fire, and water. However, this theory was proven incorrect and was replaced by Leucippus’s atom theory, which proposed that everything is made up of tiny, indivisible bits of stuff called atoms. The article also explores the concept of the dark universe, consisting of dark matter and dark energy, which make up 95% of the universe. The composition of the universe is estimated to be 68% dark energy, 27% dark matter, and only 5% visible matter. The article concludes by discussing theories about the universe’s diversity and the potential for further exploration and understanding.

Where Did Earth’s Water Come From

The article explains that Earth’s unique water composition, with its 70% liquid water surface, is peculiar given what we know about the formation of our solar system. The early inner solar system was too hot for water to exist, so scientists believe that Earth’s water must have come from meteoroids or comets that originated in the outer solar system where frozen water could survive. The most likely source for Earth’s water is carbonaceous chondrites, a type of meteorite that contains water and has similar levels of heavy hydrogen to Earth’s water.
