Because - scientists have estimated that the mass of the universe should be more than it apparently is. Ttherefore the only logical explanation to explain the difference is 'dark matter' (until they find something more 'concrete' to provide an answer.!

What else can I help you with?

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.
