Or that our understanding of how gravity works is incomplete.
I’m perfectly willing to consider the possibility of dark matter, and the even more weird dark energy.
But to assume as a fact the existence of something we cannot see in order to make what we can see fit the theories is not a very scientific approach.

The “rubber sheet and marble” analogy of Gravity it WRONG WRONG WRONG!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_well#The_rubber-sheet_model
They forget about what it below the “sheet”.
Ok! thought experiment time:
Take a large kiddie pool and fill it up to the brim with water. Now stretch a sheet of rubber over it and seal it so no air can get in and no water can get out.
NOW place a heave marble in it and observer what happens to the sheet...
It does the same as before but what happens to the outside edge of the sheet.... It RISES!!!!!
That is your so called “Repulsive Dark Energy”
Morons couldn’t understand gravity because their assumption about the dimension below space time is wrong.
Gravity and magnetism. Yet our 'science' is built around their behavior.

I think that planets with no 'star' would be 'dark', and that explains the 'missing' matter.
Dark energy? I would suggest that 'dark energy' was just a theory used to explain why the galaxy mass/gravitational pull calculations didn't work out. As it turns out, they are seeing that there is just a lot more 'mass' lying around than they had ever imagined, or could see.

Well... it's worked for thousands of years (or billions, who knows).
