The dark matter could be made up of giant planets, failed stars, black holes, clouds of unknown particles, or even, so far as the laws of physics are concerned, bowling balls. "After all this time and all this effort," sighs...
...pressure to be first has become particularly intense now that the Collider Detector has a competitor on its tail, a rival Fermilab detector that began generating its own data last May.
