RE: Dragonfly 44, a galaxy of the dark side made of dark matter
I'd love to read an article from you about how theoretically far away we are from "folding space" and travelling these great distances within human lifespans. Maybe some stuff about the alcubierre drive as well?
Also, when you say "failed Milky Way", could that possibly mean that that is where all dark matter comes from; failed galaxies from an earlier tightly packed universe?
Perhaps dark matter are broken super massive black holes....
Thoughts?

Folding space and Alcubierre drive are currently only speculative although connected to relativity. Adding on top of that that the physics behind is not too close to what I am doing... I am afraid I will not write on that. Apologies!
It is a failed Milky Way in the sense that the Dragonfly-44 galaxy could have become a galaxy such as the Milky Way, but for some reason that we do not know (yet?), the stars have not been formed. As a results, the galaxy mostly contains dark matter and nothing else. That's the only thing we can say.
Concerning dark matter, first we do not know what it is. It is only an hypothesis that works well to explain everything we observe. We still need to discover it to validate this hypothesis.
It is however not related to black holes that are different objects (with different properties) and if it exists and if our explanation for the universe history, it was already there everywhere when galaxies started to form.
I hope this helps!
