How to Make a Dark Matter Planet

The video explores the concept of planets made from dark matter, a type of matter that does not interact with electromagnetic forces and is thus invisible. It discusses the challenges dark matter faces in forming planets due to its inability to cool down by emitting electromagnetic radiation. Theoretical models suggest that dark matter could form planets through a process similar to star formation, involving a hypothetical dark electromagnetism. Scientists propose that dark matter planets could exist and might be detectable by the light emitted from regular matter they accumulate. The video emphasizes the importance of scientific inquiry in exploring these possibilities.
