Reality is stranger than we can imagine and so odd I can't even understand it.
A new strange particle that may break all known rules for creating matter was discovered in Illinois's Fermilab auto smasher and called the Y(4140). I do hope they get a better name. Maybe, the "dark particle" to join the other dark mysteries of the cosmos
Cosmic Web. Much of the missing "normal" matter from the in the cosmos resulting from the Big Bang has been found clustering around wispy ropes of invisible matter forming part of the "vast weblike superstructure of the universe within which galaxies are embedded like sparkling sequins."
The image from the University of Colorado at Boulder is a computer simulation of the universe showing a region of space
about 1.5. billion light-years a side.
Dark Matter ,an invisible form of matter that does not give off or reflect light yet accounts for the vast majority of mass in the universe, has been mapped in 3D and seems to provide "compelling evidence that the mysterious substance is the scaffolding upon which stars and galaxies are assembled".
Dark Energy, accounting for some 74% of energy in the universe repels gravity and is attributed to be the force behind the expansion of the universe.
It all reminds me of nothing so much as Indra's Net, the Buddhist concept of interpenetration of all phenomena.
"Imagine a multidimensional spider's web in the early morning covered with dew drops. And every dew drop contains the reflection of all the other dew drops. And, in each reflected dew drop, the reflections of all the other dew drops in that reflection. And so ad infinitum. That is the Buddhist conception of the universe in an image." --Alan Watts
