An international team of researchers, led by Durham University in the UK, has uncovered previously unknown ways in which nature encodes biological information in a DNA
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is a molecule composed of two long strands of nucleotides that coil around each other to form a double helix. It is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms that carries genetic instructions for development, functioning, growth, and reproduction. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA), but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA).
In November 2018, three physicists from the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Canada, offered an unusual idea: from the Big Bang not only the Universe we know but also ‘its mirror image’ created.
Twin spiral galaxies and stars in space. NASA provided picture elements. A universe that extends backward in time. From our perspective, the Universe “after the Big Bang” moves… backwards.
The physicists Latham Boyle, Keran Finn, and Neil Turok suggested in a Physical Review Letters article that the Universe we live in is merely a fragment of the true Universe and that if so, dark matter and inflation would no longer make sense.

Black Holes are fascinating yet mysterious cosmic objects scattered across the Universe. Unfortunately, we don’t know much about them, and we barely managed to snap a photo of one located in another galaxy.
But, what exactly are black holes?
Per definition, a black hole is an astronomical object with such a strong gravitational pull that nothing, not even light, can escape from it. The “surface” of a black hole, called the event horizon, defines the limit where the speed required to evade it exceeds the speed of light, which is the speed limit in the cosmos. As a result, matter and radiation are trapped and cannot get out.
In recent years, modern medicine has provided us with everything from new vaccines to protect us from deadly diseases through to groundbreaking cancer treatments. It’s provided us with hope on countless occasions – including back in 2011 when doctors unveiled a machine that could allow a human to live without a heart, one of the body’s most important organs.
Though a single measurement is not enough to definitively decide the debate, this is a major win for dark matter proponents.
