Properties of Dark Matter ­ predicted to make up about 27% of the mass/energy content of the universe­ invisible (doesn't absorb or reflect light) ­ a better term would be invisible matter­ not uniformly distributed throughout the universe ­ tends to clump up around galaxy clusters­ as of today ­ Dark Matter has never been actually detected ­ scientists have only surmised it's existence based on observational data.
