did you know that our galaxy The Milky
0:02
Way is just one of billions in the
0:04
observable universe each Galaxy contains
0:06
billions of stars many with their own
0:08
planetary systems the sheer scale of the
0:11
cosmos is awe inspiring despite
0:13
centuries have studied the universe
0:15
remains a profound mystery we have only
0:17
scratched the surface of understanding
0:18
the cosmos from particles to galaxies
0:21
the universe is filled with wonders
0:24
astronomers use powerful telescopes to
0:26
study distant galaxies and stars we have
0:29
landed spacecraft on Mars and sent
0:31
probes to the outer solar system despite
0:33
these achievements we have more
0:35
questions than answers what is dark
0:37
matter the substance that makes up most
0:39
of the universe's mass is there life
0:41
beyond Earth and what forms might it
0:42
take are there other universes hidden
0:44
from our view these Mysteries continue
0:51
imaginations one of the most perplexing
0:53
mysteries in modern astrophysics is the
0:55
existence of Dark Matter astronomers
0:58
have observed that galaxies rot much
1:00
faster than they should based on the
1:02
amount of visible matter they contain
1:04
this discrepancy suggests that there
1:06
must be some invisible form of matter
1:08
which we call dark matter
