Is the mysterious dark matter the fastest-moving material in the universe?
Dark matter does not move faster than the speed of light. It interacts gravitationally with other matter, affecting how galaxies rotate and clusters form, but it does not move on its own at superluminal speeds.
What is the temperature of dark matter?
At present we do not know. It might be almost motionless, it might have a high velocity, it might have a velocity near that of light. These three hypotheses of the nature of dark are called (respectively); cold dark matter, warm dark matter, and hot dark matter.
What is a dark matter microscope used for?
A dark matter microscope is used to indirectly detect and study dark matter by analyzing the impact it has on the distribution of visible matter in space. By observing the gravitational effects of dark matter on visible matter, scientists can infer the presence and properties of dark matter particles.
Is dark matter related to antimatter in any way?
No, dark matter is entirely different from antimatter. For one, we know a lot about antimatter and have been able to do experiments with it and actually utilize it in some nuclear reactions. Dark matter is a theory to help understand why the universe does not behaive the way we believed it should. Galaxies are showing that they do not have enough mass to have the gravitational effects that they do, so there must be matter somewhere, this is labeled as dark matter.
Who found dark matter?
No one has discovered dark matter. Dark matter is a concept to explain the rotation of galaxies. We simply do not know what it is and where it is. When we looked at nearby spiral galaxies astronomers could not explain how individual stars could be moving so fast. If you add all the mass of the material we can see or infer the gravity should not be able to hold the stars in orbit. They should be streaming off. Dark matter was invented to explain this. The theory suggest that 60 to 90% of the matter in the galaxy needs to this strange dark matter.
What does it mean that dark matter warps time and light?
Since dark matter has mass, it is able to warp time and space, which also makes it able to bend light. The effect of dark matter on space-time (and, therefore, light) is the same as that of regular matter.
Is the mysterious dark matter the fastest-moving material in the universe?

How do you kill dark matter?
Once we find out what it is, we might be able to answer this question!

Could you walk through a wall made up of dark matter?
Dark matter is a mysterious substance that does not interact with regular matter, so it is unlikely you would be able to walk through a wall made of dark matter. Our current understanding of dark matter is that it exists in a halo around galaxies and does not clump together like regular matter to form solid structures like walls.
What does dark matter and dark energy tell us about the future about the universe?
Currently, nothing at all, because we have no actual "dark matter" to study. "Dark matter" and "dark energy" are entirely hypothetical concepts which may - or may not - have any relationship with anything that might be considered "real". When we actually have something to study, THEN we may be able to approach an answer. But right now, "dark matter" is less real than one of Dr. Seuss' monsters. .

Where is the largest dark matter in the universe?
Dark matter is everywhere, there really is no place that has the most dark matter.
Is dark matter a subatomic particle?
Dark matter is an unknowm form of matter.

What is the scientific term for the opposite of dark matter?
The opposite of dark matter is visible matter.
