photoA man of opposites; laid back, sociable when you get to know me, charming, but a little quiet and maybe mysterious at first. Different? Maybe - but it's all part of the charm :0) I will talk to anyone about anything - meaning of life and universe down to trivia. My curiosity is one of my greatest strengths. I'm settled in Guildford and love being close to London. In California until 24 June

Another thread & a comment by quickfind:toberodi reminded me of this really interesting question

Calculations of the dynamics of the universe suggest that the total visible amount of matter in the universe (all the stars, gas clouds etc) counts for less than 5% of the mass of the universe.

the remaining 95% consists of "dark matter" and "dark energy" (the latter counting for the vast majority of it)

But what IS all this stuff? Is it non-massless neutrinos? or other forms of as-yet-undiscovered elementary particles? or balck holes? or is it that strange stuff which builds up in the bottom of my wardrobe, which i really must hoover out some day?

Creative answers here please....
