Ok .. so looking at this more closely, the present CDM model mass estimates are:
i) Heavy Elements ~0.03%
ii) Neutrinos: ~0.3%
iii) Stars: ~0.6%
iv) Free Hydrogen and Helium: ~4%
v) Dark Matter: ~25 %
vi) Dark Energy: ~70 %
So, even if the star matter estimate was out by three times (as the article makes out), it makes almost zilch impact on the proportion of dark matter/dark energy.
Cheers
PS: Ok reading more, they're only saying that the observation might effect the amount of dark matter in the elliptical galaxies only. That's Ok .. makes sense.
