  1. ‘One of the biggest discoveries in science’: have scientists found dark matter? – podcast
    By Presented by Madeleine Finlay, with Ian Sample, produced by Joshan Chana, sound design by Joel Cox, the executive producer was Ellie Bury

    For decades physicists have been puzzling over the enigma of dark matter. We think it makes up 85% of the matter in the universe, but the mysterious substance cannot be seen or detected, and we know about it mainly through observations of the gravitational effects it has on other things. But now scientists believe they may be a step closer to detecting it. Science editor Ian Sample explains to Madeleine Finlay why, if confirmed, the finding could completely transform our understanding of the universe. And Dr Samuel Erikson, senior research associate at the University of Bristol, and first author of the research paper, explains how the finding has been received in the physics community

  19. Cole Palmer powers Chelsea to comeback win against Leeds in nine-goal epic
    By Jacob Steinberg at Stamford Bridge

    Where’s the fun in doing it the easy way? Chelsea remain chaotic and this almost went down as Xabi Alonso’s first misjudgment since taking over. The Carabao Cup matters for Chelsea given their lack of European football, but Alonso rotated too much and escaped it after a quadruple half-time substitution got his team out of a bind.
