Imagine giant space rocks zooming through the universe, but instead of following the usual cosmic rules, they do their own thing. That’s exactly what scientists discovered—seven mysterious "dark comets" that seem to defy the known laws of motion. Unlike regular comets, these don’t have bright, glowing tails, making them nearly invisible. They also move in unpredictable ways, as if something unknown is influencing their paths. Some experts think they might be covered in strange materials that absorb light, while others believe unseen forces could be at play. Whatever the reason, these rogue comets are rewriting what we thought we knew about space! Credit:
