- 1Physicists hunt dark matter a mile underground in South Dakotaโ๐ WATCH: About 85% of all matter across the # universe remains undetected by standard scientific instruments. Operating
Roughly 85% of the matter in the universe has never been directly detected, as it does not interact with standard scientific instruments. UCLA astrophysicist Alvine Kamaha and the LUX-ZEPLIN collaboration are working to change that, operating a detector nearly 1.6 kilometres underground in South Dakota to catch rare particle interactions from dark matter.

In South Dakota, UCLA astrophysicist Alvine Kamaha and the LUX-ZEPLIN collaboration are working nearly 1.6 km underground to catch rare particle interactions that could finally reveal this dark matter.
