Photo - A new study has found that a share of particles that has gone missing is most likely located at the distant bounds of galaxy haloes. The study found some of these particles of baryonic matter located about 6 million light-years from their galactic centers. This color-rendered image shows the halo of the Andromeda galaxy, which is the Milky Way’s largest galactic neighbor.
