Security may not be exciting, but AWS proves it's essential

Editor's take: If I'm being totally honest, it's difficult to get excited about improved security capabilities in the tech world.

Astronomers Suggest That Entire Stars Are Being Obscured by Giant "Lampshades" of Dark Matter

Hunting for dark matter, the invisible substance thought to account for 85 percent of all mass in the cosmos, isn't easy. If it interacts with light at all, it does so incredibly weakly. Still, we can see its handiwork everywhere, with its gravitational pull determining the formation of everything from whole galaxies to individual stars. Now a team of astronomers is proposing a new technique for searching for dark matter — and it runs counter to its reputation as a completely invisible, light-i
