What makes up the universe? |
If you said stars and galaxies, gas clouds, black holes, photons, neutrinos, etc. you’re only partially correct. These known materials constitute only 5% of the mass-energy in universe! Dark matter comprises another 23%. Dark matter does not interact with electromagnetic radiation but does interact with gravity. Thus it is invisible and we can see right through it. The remaining 72% is made up of dark energy.
