The first map produced by the Dark Energy Survey that shows dark matter across a large area of sky
Dark-matter density from cosmic shear (click to enlarge)This is the first map produced by the Dark Energy Survey that shows dark matter across a large area of sky. The density of dark matter in the blue regions corresponds with the average density of the cosmos. The yellow and red regions have greater than average dark-matter densities. The right ascension (RA) and declination (DEC) are given in degrees. (Courtesy: Dark Energy Survey)
