Dark matter, called so because we can't see it. It's mainly in tiny particles, propagated from the dark energy field. It's thought to make up anything between 25% and 94% of the matter in the universe, estimated by the amount of gravity it exercises. Much is concentrated in places like the galactic halo, and the 'bow shock' of the heliosphere. It can also be absorbed back into the field as energy. The exchange rate for 1 unit of energy in this process is the mass multiplied twice by 299,000. (k/sec. i.e. e=mc2).

Organisms from earth, cannot live in outer space. They need a stable environment and a place to evolve and reproduce.

There's nothing in outer space that would provide them with food.
