Thanks, I think, but not Brilliant.

I just like to ask questions.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but we seem to be aware of what has been described as a “Particle Zoo”.

The LHC has said they found the Higgs Boson or God Particle.

Kinda like a “controlling particle” for the rest of the zoo.

That said, I get the impression that the search for Dark whatever is somehow outside of what we have discovered in our physical world.

Since you are begging the question, I’d like a hint.

Well is some ways it's an exciting time for theoretical physics!
A physical theory is pushed and used to “explain things” until it breaks. Like where quantum theory began, with the “Ultraviolet Catastrophe”. So time to re-sharpen those pencils (get more lead if mechanical), get more chalk, more pads of paper & get at it! — Physics Boys & Girls !
The HUGE problem with modern particle physics is the problem of “experimentation’ needing galactic levels of energy to directly test a theory (or part of a theory!) is a non-starter.
