    Default Missing matter found vegetating in front of T.V. with cheesy poofs

    Undergrad finds missing socks.

    Another score from Yahoo news...

    Missing matter is matter detected as having formed near the time of the BigBang, but unaccounted for in Modern Cosmology.

    Undergrad Amelia Fraser-McKelvie helped confirm the hypothesized location of this missing matter (Not to be confused with Dark Matter) in the "Filaments of galaxies".
    Whatever the hell a Galaxy's filament is.

    I'm guessing this will be good for her career.

    Boy, has this been around a while. First time I read this was on a dial-up electronic BBS (eBBS) back in the '80s.
    As for those whose curiosities fall along more fanciful lines, I suggest it's because they have more money than they know what to do with while not having had enough science and engineering to know what they're dealing with.
