- Scientists located the universe’s long-missing baryonic (ordinary) matter after decades.
- Used 69 Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) to trace matter scattered across space.
- 76% of ordinary matter is now confirmed to exist as diffuse gas between galaxies.
- 15% is in halos around galaxies, and just 9% inside galaxies like ours.
- Violent cosmic events like supernovas and black holes pushed matter far from galaxies.
- The missing matter was in plasma form, making it hard to detect earlier.
Discovery clears a major mystery; next focus: understanding dark matter, which makes up 85% of all matter.
