Reporter: what is “dark matter”? Dark Matter Scientist: Right. So dark matter is, well, basically, its something that we don’t know what it is. Reporter: :/

[@DingusGamba]

Unfortunately they never said HOW we know dark matter exists, and its really not that hard to conceptualize. We measure a galaxy's apparent mass, if the spiral arms/area of observation in the galaxy is moving faster than the apparent mass, there is dark matter there causing more gravitational force, which means more "acceleration". Other than observing how mass gets moved on a large scale like that, we've got nothing. So get to thinking!

[@deusexaethera]

It irritates me when reporters say "We can't observe dark matter". We _can_ observe dark matter -- it interacts via the gravitational force! That's how we know it exists in the first place! We look at galaxies and we see them spinning fast enough that they would fly apart if the visible matter were the only matter present, so we know dark matter is there, and we can even make rough calculations of the distribution of dark matter based on its gravitational lensing of distant light sources like pulsars. The problem is we haven't built telescopes that can measure gravitational forces in high detail yet, so we can't generate images of dark-matter clouds in the nice 3D visual format that we humans prefer to look at. LIGO is the closest we've gotten, and it can only measure two data points and we can't focus it on a distant star like we can with optical or radio telescopes. But yes, we _can_ observe dark matter, even if our observations are very, very fuzzy at this point. Honestly, a telescope capable of making highly-detailed measurements of gravitational forces would probably be the size of the entire solar system, so it will be a very long time before we can scatter enough gravity-sensing satellites around the solar system to make those observations, but it will happen someday.

[@Mia-ln1zs]

This is a semantic point. You ever consider that perhaps in this context observe means to see visually or with an analog comparable to sight. Why does it even matter? The observation of the effect does not demonstrate that it is "dark-matter" only that the effect is present. See a ripple on the surface of a pond is not the same as observing the fish underneath. The wind could have just as easily caused it. Dark matter is only a hypothesis that seeks to explain the effect. It could be that aliens are actually holding galaxies together. It could be our calculations of the mass of the supermassive black holes in the center of galaxies are actually way off. I personally imagine it might be something like spacetime having features akin to gravitational hills and valleys. Anyways~ Don't be so uptight.

[@deusexaethera]

@@Mia-ln1zs: Semantics are extremely important in science. If you think the method of observation doesn't matter, then you would make a shitty scientist.

[@Mia-ln1zs]

@@deusexaethera This video isn't a scientific paper. I don't know if you noticed? Comparing the building to Los Vegas wasn't technically accurate either. Did she mean a casino? A particular building?... The whole city?! When I said, "Why does it even matter?" I didn't mean that the method of observation was irrelevant. It was a segway into the next segment. The presence of these gravitational phenomena is evidence of the phenomena. Not the hypothesis that attempts to explain them. So when you said, "We _can_ observe dark matter -- it interacts via the gravitational force!" You are technically incorrect. Dark matter is only an attempt at explaining the observation. Rather than the observation being evidence of the explanation. I knew you were going to be like this chill. I just think you're splitting hairs. I'm not trying to call you an idiot or anything. This just seems like a waste of energy, and it's not quite correct. Given the video context. The term observe was used correctly. It doesn't matter that you have a different more rigid definition. You clearly understood what they meant.

[@deusexaethera]

@@Mia-ln1zs: You're right, it's not a scientific paper, it's a KZbin video -- which means 1.3 million people have watched it as of today, more people than would ever read any scientific paper ever written. Most of those viewers will take the video's content as reasonably factual and authoritative because it is presented as such. That's why it's important to get things right when discussing them in casual media, because otherwise millions of people will misunderstand the things being discussed. In particular, the reason I'm irritated about _this_ misconception is because I've encountered plenty of people who think dark matter is purely hypothetical because it's "never been observed". So to re-iterate: When someone says we can't observe dark matter, they are wrong -- we _can_ observe dark matter, we just can't _see_ it via reflected light the way we're used to seeing things. But dark matter, or something which is mathematically identical to dark matter, is absolutely real and observable even if we don't know everything about it.

The staff mentioned that working there was very fatiguing, and they thought the cause might be the thick air. But I wonder if anyone has checked for the Positive/Negative Ion balance in the air, or even no ions. Natural air, particularly in rural areas, and particularly after thunderstorms, contains lots of Negative Ions, which promote alertness and energy. Machinery and office equipment could give off Positive Ions or deplete the air of any kind of ion. So indoor air often has too many Positive Ions, or even no ions at all. I suggest that the Snolab folks find an expert in this who can do an Air Ion analysis on SnoLab's air.

[@heekim3373]

SunriseReaper agree about the host. Her mannerisms and tone are somehow off-putting. She has an air of gimmicky quirk that doesn't doesn't come across genuine and instead feels smug. Or I can be totally off base myself.

[@SunriseReaper3]

Yee, thats what I thought. But she did have too much time on "air" so I didnt mention anything.

[@SwaggyMcSwagSwag1]

I second this. She didn't cover the subject well. All I found out from this video was that there is a dark matter research facility in Ontario which is underground and apparently the cleaning lady has the most important job there because you need decades of experience to wipe dirt.

@@zurzakne-etra7069 As a Canadian, I agree. But I disagree that this is a good use of our resources. We're being given a carbon tax right now but none of that money is being used to develop infrastructure to make way for electric cars. What are we doing with that money right now? Why are we funding things like this when we could be funding research that could prove more useful to us?

[@invictusaegis2653]

@@stockloc Skimtar electric cars are good for short range but currently normal cars are better until we can power the batteries in like a hour or 2 and go for like 1k km they aren't too good but yeah i sorta agree even tho i am a american Also finding out about the universe is useful you just don't understand

They were actually there trying to get to the Nazis in our hollow Earth, now that you don't hear anything about it it's probably because they finally got to the Nazis and ended up taking control over hollow Earth's resources and our governments are keeping it a secret so that they could escape there when the solar flares hit and leave us to die on the surface.
