| - | Explanations in this section should contain no formulas, but instead colloquial things like you would hear them during a coffee break or at a cocktail party. | + | From cosmological observations we know that there must be more mass than we can presently explain through known matter. Hence, there must be something additional that makes up for this mass and this //something// is called Dark Matter. |

| + | We know from experiments with quite high confidence that there must be something additional to the standard model of particles, which is responsible for quite a large part of the matter in the universe. So far, we don't know what dark matter consists of, because we no laboratory experiment on earth was able to detect it. All existing evidence are indirect from cosmological observation. | ||
