How Can a Galaxy Have No Dark Matter? The Strange Case of NGC 1277

Universe Explorer In this video, we explore the amazing discovery of NGC 1277, a galaxy that has no dark matter. Dark matter is the invisible substance that makes up most of the mass in the universe and holds galaxies together. Without dark matter, galaxies would not exist. But NGC 1277 is different. It has no dark matter, and it contradicts our current theories of how galaxies form and evolve. It is also very old and rare, considered a “relic” from the dawn of the universe. How can this galaxy exist without dark matter? How did it come to be? And what does it mean for our understanding of the universe? These are some of the questions that we try to answer in this video, using the latest scientific research and observations. We also look at some possible explanations for how NGC 1277 came to be and why it is so different from other galaxies
