A team of scientists that includes a University of Florida physicist has suggested that two of the biggest mysteries in particle physics and astrophysics -- the existence of extra time and space dimensions and the composition of an invisible cosmic substance called dark matter -- may be connected.

"For the most part, these two questions have been treated separately in the past, and for the first time we're making a direct link," said Konstantin Matchev, a UF assistant professor of physics. "We're suggesting that the dark matter may be due to extra dimensions."

Ah...yeah, right. I'm holding my breath on this one. I think they'll find those extra dimensions hidden by those pesky gravitons

What a coincidence j6p, because I thought those extra dimensions were hidden by those pesky hypothetical particles postulated to be the quantum of gravitational interaction and presumed to have an indefinitely long lifetime, zero electric charge, and zero rest mass.

I love it Homer,

Well, I wish I could stay and talk but I have to get back to my experaments. I bought a lead prism from Edmonds Scientific on sale for only $179.95. The ad said that it would filter out interference and project a dark matter spectrum
