Should it be called "dim matter" rather than "dark matter"? In either case, interesting.

Have they considered a Black Hole which has already consumed all that was within it's gravitational pull?

Well, hey, I found an invisible galaxy myself. Am hoping it will be named after me. Only problem is that to date, nobody else has been able to see it. Do you think I could get a grant to study it in more detail?

They can find an invisible galaxy (right!) with no stars, but they can't make a zero calorie cheesecake?

Geez.

I don't know why they claim that this galaxy is "invisible". A thin, bright ellipse is clearly visible in this picture.

A burnt out galaxy? It's emitting light, just not at visible wavelengths.

Astronomers say they have discovered an object that appears to be an invisible galaxy made almost entirely of dark matter.

The astronomers later backed away from this claim, after they realized they had forgotten to remove the lens cap on their telescope.

Oh, yeah, right. These guys
are just sitting in their domes,
laughing, drinking beer,

goading each other,
to see who can come up
silly announcments!

"I've got one!" Joe says.
"Announce that we've photographed
Wonder Woman's plane!"
