Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Astronomers believe our galaxy is awash with particles of dark matter, the invisible, unidentified substance that makes up nearly 90% of the matter in the universe. So far, the existence of dark matter in space has only been determined by its gravitational pull on normal stars and galaxies.

Detailed explanation-2: -2. It has an invisible halo. Our galaxy is made up of about 90% dark matter, matter that cannot be seen, and about 10% “luminous matter”, or matter that we can see with our eyes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Dark matter seems to outweigh visible matter roughly six to one, making up about 27% of the universe. Here’s a sobering fact: The matter we know and that makes up all stars and galaxies only accounts for 5% of the content of the universe!
