- Dark matter has finally been detected? Series of coordinated announcements at several US laboratories today, researchers said they believed they had captured dark matter in a defunct iron ore mine half a mile underground. http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2009/dec/17/dark-matter-detected 249 comments science
- Researchers May Have Finally Detected a Dark Matter Particle - signal at the 3-sigma level, which indicates a 99.8 percent chance of an actual discovery — a “concrete hint,” as it’s being called. http://www.universetoday.com/101464/researchers-may-have-finally-detected-a-dark-matter-particle/ 317 comments science
- 'Dark Matter Fossils" in ancient rocks may record millions of years worth of ultra-rare dark matter interactions. Though the tell-tale imprints left behind by such interactions are 100,000 times narrower than a human hair, researchers say technology is finally at the point where it can detect them. http://www.astronomy.com/news/2019/03/physicists-suggest-hunting-dark-matter-fossils-deep-underground 7 comments science
- Physicists suggest hunting for 'Dark Matter Fossils" in ancient rocks, which may record millions of years worth of ultra-rare dark matter interactions. Though these tell-tale imprints are 100,000 times narrower than a human hair, technology is finally at the point where it can detect them. http://www.astronomy.com/news/2019/03/physicists-suggest-hunting-dark-matter-fossils-deep-underground 4 comments space
- A dense stream of dark matter is thought to currently be passing through our corner of the Milky Way. The S1 Stream — a wave of stars and dark matter traveling at over 1 million miles per hour — likely comes from an ancient encounter with a dwarf galaxy and may help us finally detect dark matter. http://www.astronomy.com/news/2018/11/a-dark-matter-hurricane-is-storming-past-earth 8 comments science
- A dense stream of dark matter is currently passing through our neck of the Milky Way. The S1 Stream (a wave of stars and dark matter traveling at over 1 million miles per hour) likely comes from an ancient encounter with a dwarf galaxy and just may help us finally detect dark matter. http://www.astronomy.com/news/2018/11/a-dark-matter-hurricane-is-storming-past-earth 13 comments worldnews

- New "Snowball Chamber" may help scientists finally detect dark matter. The first-of-its-kind device is filled with supercooled liquid water (-4°F/-20°C) that could spontaneously and entirely freeze if a passing dark-matter particle nudges even a single atom within it. http://www.astronomy.com/news/2019/04/new-snowball-chamber-might-aid-in-the-hunt-for-dark-matter 59 comments space
