Monthly Highlight: Dark Matter Day

Body

Celebrate the mysteries of dark matter on Dark Matter Day! Dark matter is...well, no one knows for sure what it is, but we know it has gravity and we know it makes up about 27% of the universe. Since 2017, scientists and institutions have celebrated their experiments and discoveries as they attempt to solve the puzzle of dark matter. And Dark Matter Day is a mystery in itself, since it’s observed on several days around October 31. Which is your Dark Matter Day? See the list of events happening around the world, featuring Nobel Laureates, CERN scientists, and physicists everywhere.

Check out some of the space-related resources created and used by ITEST projects, including projects, instruments, publications, and curriculum in our monthly highlight!
