Dark Matter: The Thing That Holds Everything Together

85% of the universe is made of something no one can find

Everything you have ever seen makes up less than five percent of the universe. The rest is invisible, undetectable, and after ninety-three years of searching, completely unidentified. This is the story of dark matter — from the man nobody listened to, to the woman who proved it, to the billion-dollar detectors that still cannot catch a single particle.
