This Light is a Different Kind of Invisible

The video explores the electromagnetic spectrum, highlighting that light extends beyond visible wavelengths. It introduces dark matter, a mysterious substance that affects gravity but remains unseen. The Standard Model of particle physics struggles to incorporate dark matter, leading scientists to propose new particles like dark photons. These hypothetical particles might interact with electromagnetic forces, unlike traditional dark matter. Experiments are underway to detect dark photons, either by observing energy discrepancies or their interactions with matter. The video emphasizes ongoing research and the potential for groundbreaking discoveries.
