Numerous researchers believe that 95 per cent of the mass of the universe is invisible, made up of 50 per cent vacuum and 45 per cent dark matter.

There's a puzzler for you. In what sense can a vacuum be considered mass?

14 billion? Sounds as though this pic just broke the old record by a nose:

vacuum = a space empty of matter

How can 95% of the mass of the universe consist of 50% space empty of matter?

Must be products of government schools.

I don't think I believe all this Big Bang stuff. I don't think the universe is only 14 billion years old. We don't even have words to explain what "light" really is. We are just on the first baby-step of a big knowledge adventure. parsy.

Dumb question about something I've never really understood and has always bugged me: How did we arrive at this point in spacetime before light from the Big Bang (or from shortly thereafter) did?

Light doesn't have stages. Stages have lights.

I thought Al Gore invented the Universe. My mind has become weary with all this talk about the speed of light. I think the whole thing is overdone. Seems like that is all physicists want to talk about, "speed of light". What I want to know is, "What is the speed of dark?".
