Dark matter, conceptual image C013 / 5592
Dark matter, conceptual image. Computer artwork representing the presence of dark matter in the universe. Dark matter is a form of matter that cannot be detected by telescopes as it emits no radiation. It is thought that cold dark matter first formed after the Big Bang. It then collapsed under its own weight to form vast halos, which sucked in normal matter to form visible matter, such as galaxies (centre)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Dark matter, conceptual image C013 / 5592" takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the mysterious depths of our universe. Created through computer artwork, it visually represents the enigmatic presence of dark matter that eludes detection by telescopes due to its lack of radiation emissions. Dark matter is an elusive form of matter believed to have originated shortly after the Big Bang. As depicted in this image, cold dark matter collapsed under its own gravitational pull, forming immense halos that acted as cosmic vacuums. These colossal structures exerted a powerful force, drawing in normal matter and giving birth to visible entities like galaxies at their centers. The visual impact of this artwork lies in its ability to convey the invisible yet profound influence of dark matter on the distribution and evolution of celestial bodies. It serves as a reminder that there is so much more to our vast universe than meets the eye. Created by Richard Kail for Science Photo Library, this thought-provoking piece combines elements from science, space exploration, astronomy, cosmology, and astrophysics. Its intricate details and imaginative representation invite viewers to contemplate the unseen forces shaping our cosmos. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring illustration capturing one aspect of nature's most perplexing phenomena – dark matter – we are reminded once again that there is still so much left for humanity to uncover and understand about the mysteries that lie beyond our reach.
