This makes it extremely difficult to be detected by current technologies .This form of matter is better known as "Invisible Matter" .Dark Matter is classified as cold , warm  or hot according to the velocity with which it moves throughout the universe. Dark Matters account for a significant part of the universe unlike the visible matter which makes up for the minority part of the universe . No one has been able to exactly predict the chara
