7 - Could Black Holes Be the Dark Matter?
Saison 1 · Épisode 7
lundi 24 août 2020 • Durée 24:19
Dark matter has eluded physicists for years - all we know is that it's some kind of matter that doesn't interact with light. Does that sound like a black hole to you?

4 - Where Did the Antimatter Go?
Saison 1 · Épisode 4
lundi 3 août 2020 • Durée 26:54
Every time a particle of matter is made, a particle of antimatter is also made. So it seems like all matter ever created should have annihilated with antimatter, leaving behind an empty universe. But then... why is our universe filled with matter?

Saison 1 · Épisode 1
lundi 13 juillet 2020 • Durée 20:47
Dark matter sounds as mysterious as it is - an invisible form of matter that permeates our universe that physicists have not yet been able to detect! And yet, most physicists are extremely confident that it exists. Learn why!
