One other comment on this note based on an article in DISCOVER MAGAZINE.
It doesn't mention dark and light energy, just dark energy and three kinds
of matter (non-luminous ordinary, luminous ordinary, and dark). There's one
type of energy and three of matter, with energy accounting for about three
times as much of what exists (.73 is about 3 times .27).

Alden:
There's an article in the December 2003 DISCOVER MAGAZINE that talks about
your question. On page 45, it says, "Here are the results of the latest
cosmic census detailing what is really out there." I believe that "dark
matter" and "anti-matter" would be the same thing, like in ordinary matter
there's an electron (with a negative charge) that corresponds to a positron
(with a positive charge) in dark matter.
With both ordinary and dark matter and ordinary and dark energy, we'd have
four ingredients to things. From the DISCOVER article, we read:
73 PERCENT DARK ENERGY
"Measurement of the expansion of the universe show it is accelerating,
apparently driven by a mysterious repulsion. ... the repulsion could be
caused by energy latent in space itself."
23 PERCERT DARK MATTER
"Observations of the way galaxies move and rotate show that they seem to be
surrounded by a vast amount of unseen matter. ... most of this matter cannot
consist of ordinary atoms."
4 PERCENT NONLUMINOUS ORDINARY MATTER
"The Big Bang models, along with the studies of primordial microwaves,
predict how many conventional atoms should be out there -- and the result is
much more that can be accounted for by stars alone. Some dark objects have
been directly observed or indirectly detected by the way they deflect light
or interact gravitationally with visible stars."
0.4 PERCENT LUMINOUS MATTER
"These are the stars, nebulas, and galaxies we see ... The density of
luminous matter is so small that it falls within the rounding errors of dark
matter and dark energy, which is why the numbers add up to more that 100
percent."

Subject: Theos-World Three Elements of Universe
Hello everyone,
We know that "matter" and "anti-matter"
along with a third "dark matter" (funny energy)
are in the universes. I would say that the dark
matter perhaps had an effect on the other two not
cancelling each other out after the " Big Bang".
I would also think that dark matter is perhaps
also the origin of the spiritual/metaphysical
in those universes, assuming it was already in
existence: Or is it too as a result of the "Bang"?
What do you think anyone? (Leon) ? Scientist!
