Dark matter, a mysterious substance that many physicists believe makes up a large proportion of the total mass of the universe, is the subject of a lot of debate.
A physicist from the UK named Melvin Vopson is suggesting that dark matter might be information itself.
According to a press release from the University of Portsmouth, Vopson claims that information could be the elusive dark matter that makes up almost a third of the universe.
How can we prove that elementary particles have a DNA of information about themselves if we assume that information is physical and mass?
The hypothesis that information is a distinct state of matter could be tested by using a particle-antiparticle collision.
When a particle of matter and a particle of antimatter collide, they destroy each other.
Vopson's idea is provocative, but there are many other theories about dark matter.
He seems compelled by the concept.
He said in the release that it doesn't contradict quantum mechanics or classical mechanics.
A scientist says dark matter could be an amazing fuel for spacecraft.
