if you're interested in astronomy/cosmology but aren't really math savvy i really recommend this review on the history of the dark matter problem. it's really accessible for the most part, and you will be able to understand why physicists will say with a straight face that only about 5% of the universe is detectable

one thing i need to start living by is “become the thing that you want” if i want friends who throw themed parties maybe i should start throwing those parties. if i want someone who writes me love letters maybe i should start writing letters for the people i love. if i want to hang out at museums and pretty cafes maybe i should invite my friends to these places. and maybe even then i won’t find the kind of people i want to be around. but then i would have become the exact person i want to be around. and maybe that’s good enough.
