That's my take, too.

Seems weird to just make up some invisible force / substance to explain an otherwise unexplained phenomenon. No different to me than saying ether fills the immensity of space.

Thanks for sharing. Love the visualization of the rotating galaxies.

I love the idea that major scientific discoveries are still to come.

We aren't even on the surface scratch level of most science.

well, that's really weird. Will be very interesting to follow up on this

This study doesn't really cast doubt on the existence of dark matter.

So what is the scientific consensus today?

if a key feature of something is misunderstood, that doesn't call into question the key feature at all? I realize

A key feature of dark matter is not misunderstood.

That's not convincing. There isn't just "one" feature of dark matter, though I understand you are arguing that

I'd say the whole idea of dark matter means we are missing something pretty

Dark matter is not comparable to the ether.

Thanks—interesting read for a lawyer with an amateur’s interest in physics!

There is an explanation for almost all the mysteries in the universe

Having read chunks of his book, I found it to be pseudoscientific gibberish.
