OK now show me you can do it.


Regarding the claims of missing matter in the Universe that came out
about 10 years ago, I expect/hope that the percentage of missing matter will continue to decline.

With what we knew at the time 90% was still hard to swallow.
There are questions when answered may drop missing matter to 70%.
With the affirmation of dark matter further distinctions could be made.

How do you 'weigh' a black hole? We don't. It is not considered ordinary baryon matter. Lets add them anyway since they used to be ordinary matter. Now what is the missing % ?

Getting a handle on what it is that is missing will go long way to understanding what the cosmos is made of.

What is the current understanding of missing matter?

Is there much more ice and water than was expected ?
