Let's say I suggest dark matter surrounds all matter from the smallest quantum bit to the largest clusters of galaxies. It is functional in ways unique to each size dimension. In the atom's nucleus it functions to separate charge and spin forcing electrons to exist in shells and the nucleons to separate from the electrons.
In our galaxy its purpose is to confine and reuse matter internally making it a functionally separate yet still capable of combining with other galaxies similarly to the way smaller atoms can become more complex and complicated.
In the universe, clusters of galaxies and voids operate similarly providing integrity and a mechanism to prevent expansion to the point of a Big Rip.
The main theory being that dark matter functions such to allow mass to exist (possible in dimensions where imaginary numbers make sense?) with size providing a flow from small to large.
As a layman I may be functionally capable to present a grand theory but it would likely breakdown as professionals would critic. The main point being that a scientific method may have two purposes; it could drive layman to learn more as their theories are debunked while simultaneously stimulating the curiosity of the most educated
if the thought happens to be profound.
That's why I like this site- it's a composite of both.
Who knows – as independent pieces of matter we could all be surrounded by an aura of dark matter that connects us to a universe we use daily in our unconscious mind
but that's a theory for another day.
