We had the Higgs bosun discovery and now it looks like we might have the vaunted dark matter nailed down – see http://phys.org/print284206733.html The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer has picked up something peculiar – which might be dark matter. It could be picking up something quite different it is admitted, such as a pulsar. As we are thought to live in a sea of dark matter the hard money is on the discovery and this is how it has been presented to mainstream media. If they can pin down dark matter astro-physicists will put some flesh to their theory, but watch this space. See also www.dailygalaxy.com/my_weblog/2013/04/nasa-to-livestream-dark-energy-dis…
