#RIP Vera Rubin, the #woman who confirmed the existence of darkmatter. #Repost @bymaaike ・・・ "In a spiral galaxy, the ratio of dark-to-light matter is about a factor of ten. That's probably a good number for the ratio of our ignorance-to-knowledge. We're out of kindergarten, but only in about third grade." Vera Rubin passed away today, the woman who discovered dark matter in the 70's.
