The only reason dark Matter and dark energy came into science is because in the 80's and 90's physicists discovered anomalies in the speed of rotation of certain galaxies and the rate of expansion of certain galaxies. In order to make the gravitational equations balance, they added in the required amount of matter and energy. We have been told for ages that the total amount of matter and energy in the universe doesn't change, yet we have seen a 20 fold increase in these things in our lifetime. And no one bats an eyelid. Neither dark energy or dark matter can be detected, seen, observed, analysed, measured or anything else. This dark energy and matter accounts for about 96% of the universe, and yet no one knows a thing about it.
