Default Darker and darker

An important "proof" for dark matter has vanished: Astronomers take back
the observation that a cluster was missing its dark matter, "left
behind". See:
Royal Astronomical Society. "Dark matter might not be interactive after
all." ScienceDaily. ScienceDaily, 5 April 2018.
www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/04/180405223407.htm.

This happened with improved observations after several years.

Will this observation of a galaxy without dark matter hold?


Keep in mind that this is ONE cluster. Modern cosmology is based on
several facts, which support each other. Even if one turns out to be
not quite correct, the whole edifice doesn't come toppling down.
