Saturn Mapping Info Presents: NASA Shares New Details About Dark Matter’s Influence on the Universe

Описание: NASA has released groundbreaking new insights into dark matter, the mysterious substance that makes up most of the universe’s mass yet remains invisible. Using data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have mapped how dark matter shapes galaxies, galaxy clusters, and the cosmic web — the vast, unseen network that forms the backbone of the universe.

By analyzing gravitational lensing effects from hundreds of thousands of distant galaxies, scientists can now see the invisible scaffolding of dark matter, revealing dense clumps and filamentary structures that guide the formation and evolution of visible matter. This map is sharper and more detailed than any previous survey, providing critical data to understand the large-scale structure of the cosmos. (sciencedaily.com)

📌 Key takeaways:
✨ Dark matter acts as the backbone of the universe, shaping galaxies and cosmic structures.
✨ The new JWST map reveals how dark matter and visible matter interact across billions of years.
✨ These observations help scientists refine cosmological models and deepen our understanding of dark energy and cosmic evolution. (astronomy.com)
