Ghost galaxy is 99.99 per cent dark matter with almost no stars


The Milky Way has a dark twin. A dimly lit massive galaxy, called Dragonfly 44, consists of a record 99.99 per cent dark matter, and could help rewrite our theories of galaxy formation.

Dragonfly 44 is the Milky Way’s doppelgänger in mass, but its opposite in number of stars and structure.
