Galaxies May Be Mimicking the Dark Matter Signals Astronomers Have Been Hunting
AI KEY TAKEAWAYS (TL;DR)
- Galaxies can create many of the same stellar stream distortions that astronomers have looked to as possible signs of dark matter
- Astronomers have long hoped that gaps, bends, and other distortions in long bands of stars around the Milky Way could reveal the hidden influence of dark matter
- But new simulations suggest many of those [
