In The Elephant in the Universe, Govert Schilling explores the fascinating history of the search for dark matter. Evidence for its existence comes from a wealth of astronomical observations. Theories and computer simulations of the evolution of the universe are also suggestive: they can be reconciled with astronomical measurements only if dark matter is a dominant component of nature.

My name is Toni, and I am a thief. Nowadays, I’m a bit more complicated than I used to be. When a heist went wrong, I ended up bound to the spirit of a dragon named Amethyst.

We were recruited to work with a bunch of shady people who claim to be saving the world. I’m not sure I believe them, but we weren’t given a choice. For the moment, we’ll focus on growing stronger...

All the matter and light we can see in the universe makes up a trivial five per cent of everything. The rest is hidden. This could be the biggest puzzle that science has ever faced. Since the 1970s, astronomers have been aware that galaxies have far too little matter in them to account for the way they spin around: they should fly apart, but something concealed holds them together. That ’something' is dark matter - invisible material in five times the quantity of the familiar stuff of stars and planets.
