Does Dark Matter BREAK Physics?

The video explores the mystery of dark matter, a substance that makes up most of the universe's mass but remains undetected. It discusses gravitational lensing as evidence for dark matter and examines three possibilities: known particles, unknown particles, or modified gravity. The video delves into modified gravity theories and their challenges, using the Bullet Cluster as evidence for dark matter as a particle. It concludes with a discussion on the nature of dark matter, potential candidates like WIMPs, and ongoing efforts to detect it.

How does the behavior of gravity on large scales challenge our current understanding of physics?

What evidence supports the existence of dark matter as a real particle?

What are WIMPs and why are they considered a candidate for dark matter?
