2/8: The Elephant in the Universe: Our Hundred-Year Search for Dark Matter Hardcover – May 31, 2022 by Govert Schilling (Author), Avi Loeb (Foreword)
https://www.amazon.com/Elephant-Universe-Hundred-Year-Search-Matter/dp/0674248996
In The Elephant in the Universe, Govert Schilling explores the fascinating history of the search for dark matter. Evidence for its existence comes from a wealth of astronomical observations. Theories and computer simulations of the evolution of the universe are also suggestive: they can be reconciled with astronomical measurements only if dark matter is a dominant component of nature. Physicists have devised huge, sensitive instruments to search for dark matter, which may be unlike anything else in the cosmos―some unknown elementary particle. Yet so far dark matter has escaped every experiment. Indeed, dark matter is so elusive that some scientists are beginning to suspect there might be something wrong with our theories about gravity or with the current paradigms of cosmology

| 0:30.0 | This is CBSI in the World, I'm John Batch with Goverge Shilling, an astronomer, |
| 0:40.8 | chronicler who is taking us into the part of astronomy that is the most confounding and |
| 0:47.0 | tempting to astronomers, to cosmologists, to people who read Goverge's book. |
| 0:52.4 | We're looking for something that we can't see, we've never found, and we're going to try |
| 0:57.4 | to imagine how we can certify, it exists. |
| 1:02.3 | We need theories, wonderful, but how do we certify it? |
| 1:05.4 | Now we come to Jeremiah Osterker, who thanks to Goverge, I've been led to his book Heart |
| 1:11.3 | of Darkness published in a few years ago. |
| 1:13.9 | He's an astronomer with firm ideas, and one of those firm ideas is to picture again what |
| 1:20.9 | we can't see. |
| 1:21.9 | It's called the halo effect around our galaxy, the Milky Way around all galaxies. |
| 1:26.8 | What is that? |
