Very interesting video. I saw it for about an hour long. Seems like there are alot we don't know about this universe yet. Thanks for sharing.

Fratty and out of touch.
I've read that some scientists believe as much as 23% of the universe may be dark matter and dark energy could be another 73%. It's alarming that we only understand 4% of the universe!

I don't get it.....if dark matter is dark, etc..how do we even know it's there and how do we ever really 'find it'..?
Need I say that I'm in ....wait for it.........the dark...?

I Could try explain it for ya. But that would only he hearsay.. Watch the vid doc. Somewhere in the middle she addresses that question.

Spoiler: theres not enough visible mass to account for galaxies keepin their shape by gravity

Scientists can be very clever sometimes when they go to trying to discover something, especially if there's a prize for being the first to find out something exists lol...

And all matter is massless made up by vibrating quantum fields.

How Matter Lost Its Mojo

It is worse than that.


Theorerically if you removed the charge from the electron it would have negative mass.

The Higgs field would probably strongly object to your proposed anti gravity method.

The only way of stripping the charge would be to introduce it to its positron frenemy.

The outcome are photons which are thought to be massless.

Unless... You somehow forced it ..
To become a electron neutrino

But then you have a W-Boson to deal with
