- ajross 9y agoAnd the X-Ray axion evidence from a few years ago looks OK too. But honestly: my money would have to go on this one. Black holes are by far the most boring and conventional of the existing theories, and the easiest to refute. aLIGO will tell us if it's right or not within years.
- Florin_Andrei 9y ago> Black holes are by far the most boring and conventional of the existing theories I was ready to start arguing, but then I realized you were speaking in the context of dark matter theories. :) I feel there's gonna be a few interesting years or couple decades ahead. Maybe not as big as the early 1900s. Maybe as big. Maybe even bigger.

- Florin_Andrei 9y agoWell, uncertainty is exciting. :)

- KirinDave 9y agoThreads like this are what keep me coming back to orange website. They are rare & touchingly innocent flowers amongst a field of awash with metaphorical blood. Thank you.
- ngold 9y agoThats really exciting. It would be amazing if we could get clear observable confirmation like Einsteins eclipse.
