What is Something Scientific that you just don't believe in at all? - eviltoast

EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something to add.

    For me as a non astrophysicist, just another theory having a big hole was simply more likely.

    Why? If you don’t have a bias against new particles. Why is a hole in one theory more likely than a hole in another?

    Why shouldn’t it be broken elsewhere, too?

    Why should it?

    But I can easily accept the information given here, primarily the case with uneven distribution, which is a good case for something being there.

    Indeed, people think dark matter is motivated by observations disagreeing with theory in one consistent way, but it’s actually a case of observation showing a large distribution of invisible mass.

    Now you just have to nail the particle down.

    It’s tricky to do, as dark matter is non-interacting by nature. It will likely be a case of process of elimination.
