Abstract
Cosmologists and astrophysicists recently came to the astounding realization that the expansion of space-time is accelerating and that everything we can see and measure in the universe accounts for only 4 percent of it. And for the past two decades, Naval Postgraduate School Vice President and Dean of Research Dr. Karl van Bibber has been looking for the other 96 percent – or, to be more precise, the one quarter of the other 96 percent now held to be composed of “dark matter.”
