SSM Plebiscite

[PaulP]

If you had read the articles you should understand they are not trying for direct detections, all the experiments are indirect detection, but with careful design they continually narrow the range of whatever they detect might be.

In the world as we know it, at our human scale and perception within our current band of knowledge, direct detection is not possible but that doesn't mean you won't notice the influence or effects.

Like the wind blowing trillions of atmospheric particles through whatever is left of your hair, it gives you no information of what they are but you can indirectly detect their presence.

Even if I cannot detect what gets blown into my hair, there would no doubt be something that could, maybe even something as simple as a magnifying glass. So direct detection is certainly possible, but what is required to do that may not be ready to hand.
