In the 1930s, scientists realised that the universe wasn't behaving as it ought to. Specifically, the galaxies were rotating much faster than would be expected, given the relatively low amount of matter. It should be noted that there is very little mass in the universe altogether, and in fact only accounts for about 0.01% of it, meaning that if you round up to the closest unit, we don't even exist.

| - In the 1930s, scientists realised that the universe wasn't behaving as it ought to. Specifically, the galaxies were rotating much faster than would be expected, given the relatively low amount of matter. It should be noted that there is very little mass in the universe altogether, and in fact only accounts for about 0.01% of it, meaning that if you round up to the closest unit, we don't even exist. For many years, the scientists simply sat around moaning, saying things like "naughty universe!" and "you're ruining our framework! It took us months to make that framework!", while shaking their fists in the air. Then a man called Fritz Zwicky (winner of Name of the Year, 1926) postulated a solution. Zwicky blamed reality's bad behaviour on a hypothetical form of matter which he dubbed "Dark Matter". It is, he explained, totally invisible and undetectable by even the mightiest of scientific apparatus. It has no appearance, no sound, no weight, not even a smell. Needless to say, the science world was taken aback by this "discovery". Many immediately supported the idea (mainly because it meant they didn't have to do any more work), but others were more critical. Some scientists thought it was just too convenient. A simple solution to the biggest problem science has ever seen, and it just so happens there's no evidence whatsoever. One rebuttal stated: "You may as well say a big invisible salamander governs the laws of reality". Zwicky's idea, however, was one that would not go away.
