Scientists at Rutgers find a rare cosmic pattern that will help them learn more about the invisible matter that holds the universe together.

Dark matter is responsible for gravity bending light to create the fifth image in the center of this image.  Light from a distant galaxy is bent by other galaxies to appear as the four outer galaxies in this image.  The "einstein cross" pictured here is a very rare find.
