All we know is that it tugs on "normal" matter with gravity.</p><p>That's why some scientists are revisiting an old idea that <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/dark-matter-primordial-black-holes-2016-7">black holes born at the dawn of time</a> - invisible monsters that could have avoided our detection until now - are a <a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/1607.06077">prime suspect</a> for all that missing mass.</p><p>Researchers call these speculative black holes "massive compact halo objects," or MACHOs, since dark matter lurks in a "halo" in and around big galaxies.</p><p>But a new study in The Astrophysical Journal Letters <a href="http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/2041-8205/824/2/L31">offers a serious reality check</a> to the idea that MACHOs are dark matter.</p><p><a href="https://www.ias.edu/scholars/timothy-david-brandt">Timothy Brandt</a>, an astrophysicist at the Institute for Advanced Study, wrote the study after he took a close look at 11 dim, feeble, and weird little galaxies. The stars there are choking with dark matter, at least compared to larger galaxies like the Milky Way or Andromeda, but the little galaxies don't seem to show any obvious signs of harboring a flotilla of old black holes.</p><p>"These galaxies would be less dense and larger than we see," Brandt told Business Insider.</p><p>Instead they're inexplicably compact. And that could represent a big threat to the MACHO hypothesis.</p><h2>The mystery of 11 non-puffy dwarfs</h2><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span><a href="http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/spaceimages/details.php?id=PIA16613">NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center/ESO/JPL-Caltech/DSS</a></span></p><p class="caption">A dwarf galaxy.</p></div><p></p></div></div></p><p>Brandt's interest started with relatively recent discoveries of small, seemingly very old, and ultra-faint star clusters.</p><p>Some of these clusters are large enough to be called dwarf galaxies, yet are billions of times dimmer than larger galaxies. Such ultra-faint dwarfs are thought to be incredibly common, Brandt says, perhaps outnumbering visible galaxies by 10- or 100-to-one.</p><p>Nearly all of their young, bright stars have burned out over the eons, which is why these ultra-faint dwarf galaxies are so hard to find.</p><p>"If you're looking with your own eyes you'd never see them," Brandt said, noting they can be as small as a few thousand stars. "We've only been finding these things for about 10 years with computer algorithms."</p><p>What made them so interesting to Brandt is that some of these clusters exist at all.</p><p>By mass our own Milky Way is somewhere between 70% and 80% dark matter - most of it lurking near the outer edge of the galaxy. Meanwhile, ultra-faint dwarf galaxies are roughly 99% dark matter.</p><p>"The dark matter is holding them together and preventing them from flying apart," Brandt told Business Insider.</p><p>And that's where Brandt realized he could see if a bunch of old black holes between 20 to 100 times the mass of the sun (a size range for MACHOs that has yet to be ruled out) really exist there. If so, they'd accelerate stars as they passed nearby, causing the entire cluster or galaxy to "puff" outward over billions of years.</p><p>A diffuse cloud of dark matter particles, on the other hand, would keep the cluster glued together.</p><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span><a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/1503.02079">Sergey E.

But if you look at all the other dwarf galaxies, I don't see how [the dark matter] could be black holes between 20 and 100 solar masses," Brandt said.</p><h2>Why dark matter might be ancient black holes</h2><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span>Alain Riazuelo of the French National Research Agency, via Wikipedia</span></p><p class="caption">An artist's depiction of a black hole.</p></div><p></p></div></div></p><p>Brandt's study comes at a time when scientists like <a href="http://www.kashlinsky.info">Alexander Kashlinsky</a>, a cosmologist at NASA, have started revisiting the MACHO idea that dark matter may just be a bunch of <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1605.04023">really, really old black holes</a>.</p><p>That's because several searches for tiny bits of dark matter, called "weakly interactive massive particles" or <a href="https://www.astro.umd.edu/~ssm/darkmatter/WIMPexperiments.html">WIMPs</a>, keep <a href="http://www.space.com/33497-dark-matter-search-comes-up-empty-lux-detector.html">striking out</a>.</p><p>"[WIMP] searches have been going on for quite some time, but nothing has been reliably detected, slowly shrinking the box of parameters where [dark matter] particles can hide," Kashlinsky previously wrote in an email to Business Insider.</p><p>Meanwhile, MACHOs of a few sizes - including those weighing roughly 30 solar masses - have yet to be firmly ruled out.</p><p>Scientists figured MACHOs probably formed within a fraction of a second of the Big Bang some 13.8 billion years ago. This was right as the event's hot, energetic soup of plasma cooled into the first subatomic bits of matter (then later into atoms, gases, stars, and so on).</p><p>These primordial black holes would have lurked in the background as the first stars, galaxies, and planets started to form millions of years later, subtly influencing their destinies while vastly outweighing them; for every bright, shining star, four stars' worth of mass was forever locked away in a black hole.</p><p>Trouble is, no one could find enough black holes to finger them as dark matter. So this spooky hypothesis lost steam over the past couple of decades.</p><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span><a href="https://www.advancedligo.mit.edu/core.html">LIGO</a></span></p><p class="caption">A technician inspects a mirror in a LIGO facility.</p></div><p></p></div></div>But the <a href="https://ligo.caltech.edu/">Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO)</a> - a 15-nation, 900-scientist, $1 billion experiment - recently gave the notion new life.</p><p>LIGO's <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/gravitational-waves-detected-first-time-ligo-2016-2">first-ever detection of gravitational waves</a> was made possible by two black holes smacking together, each roughly 30 times the mass of our sun.</p><p>Thing is, this size of black hole is <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1006.2834">supposed to be rare in nature</a> - so detecting two at once is rather remarkable.</p><p>Calculations suggest black holes of that size could be MACHOs that formed within a second inside the hot, energetic soup of the Big Bang.</p><p>If so, then a lot more of them are out there, others will eventually collide, and LIGO will keep detecting them as it listens for ripples in space-time.</p><p>"We should know the answer within a couple of years," Kashlinsky previously said, later emphasizing that this is irrespective of Brandt's challenging findings.</p><p>"LIGO is starting a new run of observations in September.

If true, the cluster exists near the edge or outside of the dwarf galaxy, which could explain its non-puffiness (there is less mass nearby to pull on stars and help accelerate them).</p><p>Brandt's study pegs that possibility at about 1%. "Statistically speaking that is non-negligible at all," Kashlinsky wrote in an email to Business Insider.</p><p>A more radical explanation is that MACHOs may be smaller than anyone thought, perhaps somewhere between the the weight of the moon and an asteroid.

"If that's the case, we're in trouble. We've never come to that point where we know something is out there but is completely invisible to our experiments."</p><p>"But I'm not that pessimistic," he said.

11 wimpy galaxies are beating up our brightest explanation yet for a deep, dark cosmic mystery

<p></p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image"></div><p></p></div></div>Every June, the video game industry gathers in Los Angeles to take over the LA Convention Center with massive banners and signs in an explosion of marketing. It's bombastic. It's loud. And it's a way for the game industry to demonstrate to the non-video game world what's worth paying attention to in the coming holiday season.<p>The event, known as "E3" (the "Electronic Entertainment Expo"), is a monument to expenditure in the service of marketing. And thankfully for us, that means dozens of gorgeous trailers. Right here, we've gathered last week's best of the best for your approval.</p><h1>Sony's PlayStation 4:</h1><ul><li><h3>"The Last Guardian" easily stole the show, finally being "re-announced" after years of carefully worded statements from Sony's PlayStation team on its whereabouts. The game follows a small boy and his pet...cat-bird-thing. They're dependent on each other to solve puzzles and continue on their journey through what looks to be a crumbling castle of sorts. What's got people really excited is its creator, Fumito Ueda, whose previous two games ("Ico" and "Shadow of the Colossus") are widely-acclaimed as two of the best games ever made.</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><ul><li><h3>"Final Fantasy VII" is finally - finally! - getting remade after nearly 20 years of fans demanding it. This is the seminal Japanese role-playing game that gave many game fans their first taste of emotional storytelling in video games.</h3></li></ul><div><p class="embed-spacer"><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">&#xa0;</span></p><div></div></div><ul><li><h3>"Uncharted 4: A Thief's End," the most impressive trailer of the show in terms of visuals, is the followup to the most successful franchise on the PlayStation 3. In it, you control an Indiana Jones-esque explorer named Nathan Drake (from a third-person perspective) as he explores lost cities and knocks out the jerks guarding them.</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Horizon Zero Dawn" is a gorgeous, third-person action game starring a ferocious warrior who's taking on an army of dinosaur-like robots. It's from the studio that spent the past decade making "Killzone" games, Guerrilla Games, in Amsterdam.</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Dreams" is the next game from the studio that created the "LittleBigPlanet" franchise, and it's somewhat indescribable. It appears to be a creation engine of sorts, enabling players to create worlds (and games) based on their dreams.</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><h1 class="embed-spacer">&#xa0;Microsoft's Xbox One:</h1><ul><li><h3>"ReCore" is being created by two famed developers: Keiji Inafune, who created the iconic "Mega Man" franchise, and Armature Studio, which is led by the game director of the acclaimed "Metroid Prime" game series.</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Halo 5: Guardians" is the next major entry in the "Halo" game series, and the first major "Halo" to land on Microsoft's latest console, the Xbox One. Microsoft started its big Xbox press conference last week with this trailer, which shows off a new, eSports-inspired multiplayer game type.</h3></li></ul><div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><div>    <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="hqeXhudTq4AUTkMiwCRfNd7AvHgaelFY" data-player-variable="ooyala05157a917c574da9bf1ceb447becb726" id="ooyalaplayer_05157a917c574da9bf1ceb447becb726" style="width:1280px;height:722px"></div>    </div></div><ul><li><h3>"Cuphead" is, unbelievably, being made by two people. They're brothers, actually - Chad and Jaren Moldenhauer - and they came up with the idea for "Cuphead" many years ago. The brothers have finally made their dream a reality in "Cuphead," which takes 1930s-style animation (think: "Steamboat Willy" era Disney) and combines it with a 2D shooting game. It's dripping with style, and largely beloved based largely on its looks.</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Sea of Thieves" is a brand new franchise from veteran UK game studio Rare, which is now owned by Microsoft. In "Sea of Thieves," players take on the role of a seafaring lad or lady - basically a pirate, though more "Pirates of the Caribbean" than "Captain Philips" - whose mission is to loot and plunder. At least that's what we know about it so far.</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Gears of War 4" is the long-awaited next entry in the "Gears of War" franchise - a game where you play as humans the size of couches, who speak like truckers, and use a gun with a saw attachment to literally cut through enemy aliens. It's got quite a loyal following.</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><h1 class="embed-spacer">Nintendo's Wii U and 3DS:&#xa0;</h1><ul><li><h3>"Super Mario Maker" is, as it sounds, a creation tool for making new games starring Super Mario. Every Mario game, from the original NES "Super Mario Bros." through the Wii U's "New Super Mario Bros. U" is supported, which is to say, "You can create Mario games from any point in the franchise's last 30 years." Notably, that doesn't include any 3D Mario games ("Super Mario Galaxy," for instance).</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Star Fox Zero" is Nintendo's first foray into the "Star Fox" franchise in nearly a decade. It's a partial re-make of the original "Star Fox" - which first appeared on the Super Nintendo in 1993 - and partial new game.&#xa0;</h3></li></ul><div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><div>    <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="VuYnhvdToOoMHxMEPTCNKCz4SDj-7gQ9" data-player-variable="ooyala3230b4c6c6b24f338b1d4ae04c3688c9" id="ooyalaplayer_3230b4c6c6b24f338b1d4ae04c3688c9" style="width:1920px;height:1080px"></div>    </div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Yoshi's Wooly World" is a beautifully stylized yarn world that Mario's favorite dinosaur buddy must carefully navigate. Nintendo's apparently doubling down on the concept it first tested in "Kirby's Epic Yarn," another Nintendo game starring an important but secondary character, also created of yarn. Notably, Nintendo's releasing a plushie Yoshi <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/why-you-cant-buy-nintendo-amiibo-2015-4">amiibo</a> (the figurines that have helped reinvigorate Nintendo's financial numbers as of late) alongside the game. It's, unsurprisingly, adorable.</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Metroid Prime: Federation Force" is a handheld entry in the long-running "Metroid" franchise. It promises "four-player co-op experiences in the 'Metroid Prime' universe," which is to say, "It's a handheld 'Metroid' first-person shooter game, set in areas from previous games, now built around four-player co-op play."</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash" is literally the only upcoming tennis game on any console, from any game maker. Gone are the days of "Top Spin" and "Virtua Tennis" - Super Mario's tennis game is quite literally the only game in town. The next game in the franchise is headed to Wii U and, if you're looking to trounce Bowser in a round of tennis, this is your game.</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><h1 class="embed-spacer">&#xa0;What else?</h1><ul><li><h3>Microsoft's demo of its "mixed reality" headset, HoloLens, was incredible. It showed how users can take their "Minecraft" worlds and bring them into the real world, using HoloLens. This video of "Minecraft" brand director Lydia Winters showcasing how the headset works with the game is unbelievable.</h3></li></ul><div><p class="embed-spacer"><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">&#xa0;</span></p><div>    <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="RoazBvdTrEJtIeq-lgpprBcac3d__cv5" data-player-variable="ooyala12055c55878b4301e638684bbe5c2d11" id="ooyalaplayer_12055c55878b4301e638684bbe5c2d11" style="width:1280px;height:714px"></div>    </div></div><ul><li><h3>"Star Wars Battlefront" is all the "Star Wars" battles you played out in the living room as a child, but in an unbelievably handsome multiplayer game. As AT-ATs stroll through Hoth, you're either a Rebel or an Imperial trying to take down the enemy before you're taken down. "Battlefront" isn't a direct lead into the much-anticipated, upcoming "Star Wars" film, but it does feature an important battle that sets the stage for the new movie. And if nothing else, it's incredibly pretty.</h3></li></ul><div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><div>    <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="JqMDZvdToDKirUpbqNP7AmhIg1PMQ0g1" data-player-variable="ooyalab17dec96d7ed4a1ffebee8214910231a" id="ooyalaplayer_b17dec96d7ed4a1ffebee8214910231a" style="width:1280px;height:720px"></div>    </div></div><ul><li><h3>"Kingdom Hearts 3" is the third entry in a series that asks "What happens when you combine Disney characters with 'Final Fantasy' sensibility, all in a third-person action setting?" If that sounds to you like the perfect combination of two rabidly devoted fan bases, you'd be right - <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/kingdom-hearts-3-e3-footage-2015-6">fans freaked out</a> when the game was finally shown last week for the first time.&#xa0;</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Mirror's Edge: Catalyst" was a long-time in the making. The first game in the series, "Mirror's Edge," launched in 2008. Though critically-acclaimed, it didn't sell as well as its publisher Electronic Arts would've liked. Due to overwhelming demand from fans, EA is creating a sequel (an origin story, so maybe more "prequel") named "Mirror's Edge: Catalyst." Why do fans love it? It's unique! "Mirror's Edge" is a game about first-person parkour, and flips the generally accepted concepts of a first-person game on its head.</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Ghost Recon: Wildlands" is an open-world third-person shooter, which relies heavily on co-op play with friends to succeed in a variety of different missions. In the trailer, you'll see that missions can be accomplished in a variety of different ways: sneaky and benevolent or loud and savage, among others.&#xa0;</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Dark Souls 3" is the third entry in the "Souls" series, but really the fifth entry in this style of game - unique to its developer, From Software. The simplest way to describe these games is as third-person action games, but that'd be selling them very short. What keeps fans coming back to the "Souls" series is its challenge: these are not games that will hold your hand, and if anything are more demanding than most other games available today.&#xa0;</h3></li></ul><div><div></div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><ul><li><h3>"Mass Effect: Andromeda" is the next entry in the ongoing space opera that is the "Mass Effect" series. Rather than follow the (hotly contested) events that concluded "Mass Effect 3," "Andromeda" has players venturing into a previously unexplored part of the galaxy. It looks to be a bit of a space western, if anything, which we're fully ready to embrace based solely on the trailer below.</h3></li></ul><div><p class="embed-spacer"></p><div>    <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="k3YjNvdTpNT0kcVpXOGqbXGE0-gKdbA1" data-player-variable="ooyala3979e68fab59427dff92f81afbf19cc5" id="ooyalaplayer_3979e68fab59427dff92f81afbf19cc5" style="width:1280px;height:720px"></div>    </div></div><p class="embed-spacer"></p>    <div class="margin-top">        <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/doom-video-game-trailer-2015-6">This classic '90s video game is getting a major overhaul and we just saw it in action for the first time</a></h3>        <div>            <div>        <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="szeGt0dTpI1p7KiIhfNs0hFCTevRnCwk" data-player-variable="ooyalapopvideo" id="ooyalaplayer_popvideo" style="width:1280px;height:720px"></div>        </div>        </div>            </div>
