According to a new paper featured in Nature Astronomy, we have now detected dark matter in the cosmic web for the very first time. The cosmic web is a proposed web of filaments that scientists ...

For the first time, astronomers have detected dark matter hanging from massive filaments that stretch across the universe and form a "cosmic web" that trap galaxies like morning dew on a spiderweb.
