Could we create dark matter? - Rolf Landua

Eighty-five percent of the matter in our universe is dark matter. We don’t know what dark matter is made of, and we’ve yet to directly observe it, but scientists theorize that we may actually be able to create it in the Large Hadron Collider, the most powerful particle collider in the world. So how would that work? CERN scientist Rolf Landua explains how to discover a new particle.

Lesson by Rolf Landua, directed by Lazy Chief.

Ted Ed is non profit but most vids are so easy to understand and seem to teach me more than some school teachers can in a year.

I lost it when you showed ducks as Quarks and glue as Gluons. So it's more like Duck Matter!

As an astrophysicist, I absolutely love the graphics!! Well done!

The animation in this lesson is fantastic; shout-out to Lazy Chief, CERN, that guy in the U.K., and the collective Ted.

I love that science has reached a point where it's so insane their only option is to stare at numbers until a little bump tells them they've found a new aspect of nature.

"What's the matter Dark Matter?"
"Nothing much, apparently."

[aseth]

One of the best animations TED Ed has ever created. Great work guys!

[feynstein]

If we don't even know what dark matter is, how will we know if we've produced it?

[madcat]

I'll support your Patreon. You guys do good work.

Ted Ed should make a new channel for kids to explain scientific building blocks so they can better begin to understand these videos

[lolkayleen]

This my favorite style of animation from them. So unique for them and portraying the concept in realistic animation while explaining one of the most abstract concepts is genius 🥰
