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 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 Solid liquid or gas?
We do not know as we have not found any dark matter to examine. The only way we detect it and know it exists is due to its gravitational attraction of the ordinary matter we can see. One speculation when neutrinos were discovered to have tiny nonzero masses was that dark matter might be neutrinos. Another speculation is that dark matter is only ordinary matter, but its in another separate universe in a shared higher dimensional spacetime. Nobody knows.
Who came up with the dark matter?
I am researching that question too, All I know is: · dark matter is hypothetical matter that is undetectable by its emitted radiation · presence can be found from gravitational effects on visible matter · Dark matter is believed to play a central role in structure formation1 and galaxy evolution1 · most of the matter in the entire Universe is invisible · invisible stuff is called dark matter · called "dark" because it does not emit any light · cannot be seen directly Have fun!
How strong is dark matter?
Dark matter's strength is proportional to it's mass. This means that more dark matter in one spot is stronger then a little bit of dark matter in that same spot.
When was Dark Matter - series - created?
Dark Matter - series - was created in 2004.
What state of matter isn't found on earth?
dark.
What is dark matter and normal matter in space?
Dark matter are exotic and poorly understood forms of mass in the universe, and normal matter are basically common phases of matter found on Earth, such as solids, liquids and gas.
What state of matter is most commonly found in the universe?
If we are talking about normal matter, as opposed to the dark matter, that would be plasma.
What is the percentage of dark matter in your universe?
In my Universe, about 23% of its energy is found in dark matter -- about four to five times more than in matter we happen to understand. I don't know the percentage in your Universe.

Where is the largest dark matter in the universe?
Dark matter is everywhere, there really is no place that has the most dark matter.

What is the state of most of the matter is the universe?
The most common type of energy/mass in the Universe is in the form of dark energy, followed by dark matter. Only about 4% of the Universe is in the form of "normal" (baryonic) matter. If it is specifically to this matter you refer: the most common state of matter is plasma, found in stars.
Is dark matter a subatomic particle?
Dark matter is an unknowm form of matter.
Is dark or anti-matter been found or saved with the use of the collider?
"Anti-matter" . . . yes, routinely. "Dark matter" . . . no way to know. The reason it's called "dark" is that it can't be seen or detected in any way currently available to us; its existence is a hypothesis that's presently untestable.
