Something has orbits around galaxies
failing to follow the law of gravity
from ordinary matter. The orbits
are as if there
there is some more mass with
gravity, mass that doesn't interact with
light.
Something is in/near galaxies is bending
light as if there were more mass there
than there is from just ordinary matter.
So, for that extra mass, call it dark
matter.
Seems simple enough.
"Flaw in the theory of gravity?" Maybe,
but that seems to be the hard way
to get an answer.
