The Dark Universe

The Scout Report today includes a direct link to free access supplement on

The Dark Universe

We "see" only 4.9% of what we've got.

From "The Scout Report":

5. Nature Outlook: The Dark Universe
http://www.nature.com/nature/outlook/dark-universe

The international science journal Nature routinely publishes Nature
Outlook, a supplemental series in which topics of scientific, clinical, or
societal interest are explored in depth. These Outlooks provide a
comprehensive picture of the current "state of knowledge" on the selected
theme. For instance, this Outlook from September 2016 explores the ever
elusive topic of The Dark Universe. As the authors note, "Most of the
cosmos is the dark universe, a mix of dark matter and dark energy." Readers
have access to seven articles written by science journalists and scholars
on the topic, as well as Related Articles and informative Animations. The
content here is best suited for readers with a basic understanding of
physics; if used as an educational resource, the articles and animations
may be most beneficial for college or advanced secondary students. Readers
interested in exploring more Nature Outlook topics may select the See all
supplements link at the top of the page. [CDR]

I have been a subscriber for 22 years via the "PAM" librarian association. I made an entry back on September 28 on "Cosmology" which ought to contain the same material but perhaps this presents a better access.
