I don’t know enough to have an opinion, but my hope is that dark matter does not exist. It feels kind of like Einstein adding a cosmological constant to relativity to keep the universe static. (If that sounds familiar, it’s because I lifted from your “4 Mistakes” post.)

I’m going to spend Inauguration Day (January 20th) talking about science and I hope you’ll join me.
There are several criticisms I have to offer for this model.
