Best Answer

Not much is currently known about the structure of dark matter. For a start, it was never directly observed. There is only indirect evidence for dark matter. Therefore, it isn't know what types of structures it forms, if any.

Can dark matter kill you?

The whole point of dark matter ... the thing that makes it "dark" ... is that it doesn't interact with normal matter except through the gravitational force (and, possibly, for some potential types of dark matter ... remember that nobody really knows what it actually is yet ... the weak force).One type of dark matter that we know about for sure is neutrinos. Around 65 billion neutrinos per second pass through every square centimeter of your body perpendicular to the direction of the Sun. They have been since you were born ... since before you were born, in fact. Even at night, because they go straight through the Earth too and come up through the ground on the side facing away from the Sun. The kajillion that have already done so haven't killed you yet, it's not all that likely that the kajillion and first is going to kill you.About the only reasonably possible way to die from dark matter would be if there were a lot of it concentrated in one smallish area, in which case you could be pulled apart by tidal forces if you were in a spaceship that went too close to it. This also isn't likely to happen.


Can you make a ray gun out of dark matter?

We don't, at this point, really know exactly what "dark matter" is. However, it seems unlikely you could make anything out of it, as it's almost certainly not a condensed phase of matter (i.e. a solid, or even a liquid or gas except in the most metaphorical of senses).
