So we don't know what dark matter is, but we know what it's not.

So when you think of a galaxy like our Milky Way, it has three main components.

It has stars, it has gas, but most of it is dark matter.

Cloud 9, I'd like to think of it as a bit of an underachiever.

It actually had all the resources it needed to make a galaxy.

It had the fuel, it had all the conditions, but it just chose not to.

A clump of dark matter.

It not only teaches us about the nature of galaxy formation, but also the nature of dark matter itself.
