Physicists must start taking philosophy of science seriously or run the risk of stagnating, argues Sabine Hossenfelder (@skdh).https://iai.tv/articles/why-physics-has-made-no-progress-in-50-years-auid-1292 …

This is exactly what is wrong with science. No it is indeed not observed directly, only “indirectly” because the standard gravity only models cannot otherwise explain what is directly observed! Like the speed of the outer stars of the galaxy. Hint: the model might be wrong!
we know the model is wrong ? what the hell do you think we're doing this whole time ? literally the entire field of particle physics is currently devoted to developing models of dark matter .. we have tried modifying the EFEs .. you strike me as someone who has done 0 research

That begs the question. How do scientists expect to detect "dark matter" with normal matter?

bro that's like the whole thing .. that dm weakly couples to other forces

This may be what's wrong with science. I read a letter to editor in astronomy journal... back in '80s. Guys at Cornell? (can't remember) were having trouble with 1st year physics majors. All were failing physics 101. Couldn't figure out what the f was wrong with this class..

... They thought admissions had f'd up bad. Eng students doing just fine... But no, they all checked out and all had very high SAT scores etc. Long story short, the students had all decided the professors were idiots, because none of them had ever read or heard of Stephen...

I mean if all we can observe right now with all our newest instruments only makes up some small percentage of all there must be out there ACCORDING TO YOUR MODEL, most probably that model is wrong.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

I don’t know what to say to you. There are models out there that can explain what is directly observed without the need for dark matter. Good luck spending your life on trying to find something that only your faulty gravity only model of the cosmos needs to exist.

I think people need to understand that "dark matter" is simply the name given to whatever causes the phenomenon of anomalous galaxy rotation curves, irrespective of the particular model used to describe it.
