I'm not sure the modellers have considered such a shape yet in their calculations for rotation curves. (At least I haven't seen any such model shapes, yet).

The calculated mass attributable to Dark Matter absolutely swamps and vastly outweighs normal matter. The 'Trillions of Earths' discovery is still miniscule compared with the required mass.

Hi Craig ,I thought that there should be some strange shapes in the spiral arms of the Galaxy with this massive halo around it
