"Dark matter is one of the greatest unknowns and yet it is the most important gravitational factor in the universe. Indeed, dark matter is the most numerous matter and its mass influences the design of the cosmos. It has enabled the formation and maintenance of the galactic structures. Thus it is very difficult to understand the universe without knowing its properties. However it reacts only with Gravity and not with the others fundamental forces. It is not a « weak » reaction but a total absence of direct reaction with a full spin. Indeed, dark matter is not only invisible to us because it does not have a detectable electromagnetic field, but it also does not show any nuclear reaction whatsoever. Finally, it seems to be able to influence only large areas, which suggests that it is unable to concentrate too much. So the only thing we know about dark matter is not its properties, but its « non-proprieties », in other words, what it doesn’t do, that is, react with our own fundamental forces (except Gravity) in addition to covering only large areas (large gravitational lenses). So dark matter remains a great mystery. However, if the problem is posed differently, there is a way to understand it. “ We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them. ” Albert Einstein "Full Text

Dark matter is one of the greatest unknowns in the cosmos, despite being the most important gravitational component. Indeed, dark matter is the most prevalent matter and its bulk has an impact on the design of the universe. It has permitted the construction and preservation of cosmic structures. As a result, understanding the cosmos without knowing its qualities is extremely difficult. However, it only reacts to gravity and not to the other fundamental forces. It is not a weak reaction, but rather the complete lack of direct reactivity with full spin (even in our particle accelerators). Indeed, dark matter is not only opaque to us because it lacks a measurable electromagnetic field, but it also exhibits no nuclear reaction at all. Finally, it appears to be able to influence only wide areas, implying that it lacks concentration. So the only thing we know about dark matter is its non-properties or what it does not do, which is react with our own fundamental forces (save gravity) and cover only enormous areas (big gravitational lenses). As a result, dark matter remains a big mystery. There is, however, a solution if the problem is phrased differently.Keywords
