Chandra - Dark Matter discovered?

NASA Announces Dark Matter Discovery
Astronomers will announce how dark and normal matter have been forced apart in an extraordinarily energetic collision at 1 p.m. EDT Monday, Aug. 21.

Thats a short announcement, with very little fanfare, but if it says what it seems to say, its likely one of the most important press conferences in the history of physics and cosmology. “Dark Matter” has long been the elusive question and answer in the universe, postulated as a way to explain some things, but never experimentally verified or observed. If, in fact, ‘dark matter’ has been isolated … that’s beyond big, IMO … that’s freakin’ HUGE!!!!

    I have completed 60 solar orbits; I have been in this study for 35. It is my belief that this explanation you have presented is of mirror image. Example: The interaction is as a “Three Dimensional” Yin-Yang symbol. What can appear as a “rip,” is fractal Geometry. Light and Dark “matter,” is but interplay of opposing energies. Obviously, I am not particle physicists, but one of Quantum. In my dimension of this Universe, what you call “particles” are “events. The Confluence of Fields. This is why we appear to collapse a field to a particle upon our attention. I might add that of course, “we ourselves” are the “Final Instrument,” and so for me, realities are dependent on the Dimensions you inhabit that others do not share, always in this moment.
